The crown jewel of the USAF, the Apollo has been adopted by the JAAT as the their air superiority fighter. This technological marvel is the fastest fightercraft in the world, capable of outrunning anti-air defences and hunting down most rivalling jets with impurity, shooting them down with it's AMRAAMs. It's radar absorbent coating makes it invisible on radar, making it hard to pinpoint it's presence. This makes it the perfect aircraft for ambushing. Take note that a lot of armour had to be sacrificed to keep it as light as possible, meaning that it will not last long if it were to be caught in heavy anti-air fire. It is also prohibitively expensive and only has basic Maverick missiles for use against soft ground targets.

It refers to the preflight check ritual of kicking the tires to ensure the drywall integrity and then lighting the afterburners when turning the engines on. _________________ You come for the modding but you stay for the Crap Forum. QUICK_EDIT

I know, I was referring to the same quote the Apollos in RA3 say when built. _________________ ~ Excelsior ~ QUICK_EDIT
