CFA-44 -PROTOTYPE-

"Prototype Aircraft. The stability of this aircraft has taken precedence over other design elements to facilitate a battle deployed EML system. The fully maximized striking power of the EML makes up for any inherent disadvantages in dogfighting capabilities. A variety of additional customizations were carried out at the hand of ace pilot Ilya Pasternak."

Performance
The CFA-44 Prototype is, simply put, the antithesis of the original version in terms of statistics. The aircraft maximizes stability and air-to-ground performance, at the expense of greatly reduced mobility and speed. Armor and air-to-air are left untouched, as is the weapons payload. As a bonus, the Prototype's performance rids it of the High-G lock problem that plagued the original aircraft.
