Overview
supercritical airfoil for shorter takeoff/landing and fuel efficiency; airframe out of superplastic forming zinc-aluminum; areas under high thermal/mechanical stress needs titanium I think it's called Ti-6222 or something for what they use in the F-22 vertical stabilizers probably out of al-li? Carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic? we can probably dissolve schiff-base-salt RAM into an epoxyide applique

Electronics
- Athena System
- Radomes are constructed out of selective bandpass material
- rearward facing radar
- missile alert warners
- super-heterodyne RWR (so you can figure out the bearing of a transmitter)
- directional RF jammer mounted in the tailfins
- pod-mounted IR/UV laser jammer
- INS/GPS navigation
- self-repairing flight controls
- multifunction radar, FLIR/EO imager too
- utilities management for stuff like hydraulics and oxygen and electrical generation
- stores management for fuel + payload
Usage
Soon to be demonstrated.
