Jet fighter with good concept and design

  F-15 SE F-15SE Silent Eagle is an upgraded version of the F-15 Strike Eagle aircraft, being developed by Boeing for international customers. The F-15SE features an innovative design which reduces its radar cross section. A prototype of the F-15SE Silent Eagle aircraft was first unveiled in March 2009. F-15SE is 63.6ft (19.4m) long, 18.5ft (5.6m) high and has a wingspan of 42.8ft (13m). The basic design of the  F-15SE  is similar to that of the F-15 Strike Eagle aircraft with new components added. The new components include the conformal weapons bay (CWB) instead of the standard conformal fuel tanks. The CWB significantly increases the internal carriage capacity of the aircraft and also reduces its radar signature. Two additional weapons stations have been included to enable the aircraft to carry an additional four air-to-air missiles. The Silent Eagle also features twin vertical tails canted 15° outward. Canted tails provide rear lift to the aircraft and reduce ballast ...

MiG-29 SM and Su-30 SM

MiG-29 SM MiG-29 SM is similar to the S version, with the ability to carry guided air-to-surface missiles and TV- and laser-guided bombs. NATO reporting code is "Fulcrum-C". The MiG-29S, given the NATO reporting code also "Fulcrum-C", features flight control system improvements; a total of four new computers provide better stability augmentation and controllability with an increase of 2° in angle of attack (AoA). An improved mechanical-hydraulic flight control system allows for greater control surface deflections.  The MiG-29S has a dorsal hump, which led to its nickname "Fatback", houses the L-203BE Gardenyia-1 ECM system. The MiG-29S can carry 1,150 liter (304 US gallon, 2,000 lb) under wing drop tanks and a centerline tank. The inboard underwing hardpoints allow a tandem pylon arrangement for carrying a larger payload of 4,000 kg (8,820 lb). Overall maximum gross weight has been raised to 20,000 kg (44,000 lb).  Built only for domestic us...

DDH and LST of the Sun

Izumo and Kaga The Izumo-class multi-purpose destroyer (いずも型護衛艦 Izumo-gata-goei-kan) or 22DDH is a de facto Aircraft Carrier originally ordered to operate as a helicopter carrier constructed for the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF).  In late 2018 the class was predesignated as multi-purpose operation destroyers following the announcement that they would operate STOVL jets. The ships of this class are currently the largest surface combatants of the JMSDF, taking over the mantle previously held by the Hyūga-class helicopter destroyers.  The lead ship was officially unveiled at Yokohama on 6 August 2013.  On December 2018, the Japanese Cabinet gave approval to convert both ships into aircraft carriers capable of operating the F-35B. Hyuga and Ise The Hyūga-class helicopter destroyer (ひゅうが型護衛艦 Hyūga-gata-goei-kan) is a class of helicopter carrier built for the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF).  Two - Hyūga and Ise - were buil...
