Tallenberg XF-1

Description
A first generation jet prototype designed in the early days of Tallenberg Industries, the XF-1 was more of a combination of experiments than an actual plane design. A massive failure in itself, it permitted Tallenberg engineers to transition from prop planes to jets.

After copious amount of R&D, experiments and other failed designs, Tallenberg Industries was finally able to produce more effective fighters. The XF-1 was the first step, albeit not a pretty one.

As for the plane itself, it has poor maneuverability, really slow speed and a ridiculously limited ordnance capacity. At best, it can serve for target practice.

It was never intended for anything else than testing purposes; don't expect it to perform great (or to perform at all) in any engagement.

Specifications:

Engines: 2 unnamed prototype jet engines (small CJEs) only developping 6630 thrust power each, 1.5 material burn combined;
Max speed: 77-78m/s
Armament: 1 unnamed prototype 18mm gatling gun firing kinetic rounds, 2 medium missiles;
Detection: 1 90° active radar in front, several munition warning systems;
Countermeasures: 2 small quadruple launchers firing a dual-purpose decoy (IR strength 1200 and Radar strength 1200);
