War Planes


There are many war planes in production around the world.

The F15 Eagle is one of the greatest combat jet planes in existence, even though it’s been over 33 years since its prototype took off.
The F16 Falcon is an extremely capable aircraft it’s able to do a 9G turn. It was one of the first to fly by the fly-by-wire control system.The control system allows for a side mounted control stick instead of the knees joystick that was standard since the beginning. This allows the pilot to have better control during the high-G maneuver that the plane flies.
The F117 Nighthawk -or as it is often know as “The Stealth Fighter”- is still one of the strangest looking aircraft you will ever see. But there is a motive to this madness, the aircraft frame and works are use to fully utilize stealth technology. Its sweet design makes it hard to be picked up by both radar and infrared signatures
