You cant start this jet without me

F-104G and Rythena
I have Personally always been a F-104 lover, and I have wanted to make a better one ever since… 2 weeks ago lol. I also wanted to give it a fun little ‘’introduction history” into the Rythena Marines, so here we go :D. Hellburner Retired- Rythena’s First Interceptor known as the Hellburner was made for speed and radar-missile guidance capability. The Hellburner was updated through various stages of its service life until the MKIV-[II] Was Introduced as a high speed multirole platform that used simple avionics and weapons, but as Rythena slowly evolved and requirements changed, it was quickly made obsolete in the following months. The Hellburner exited service as an fighter and now acts as more of a bomber. The Excluding of the Hellburner from the RAF caused a gap to form in its place, however. The RAF soon decided to look back on an old fighter of theirs and created a much better ‘’replica’’ of it. The F-104G was sent to escort F-111Fs on the front lines of a few conflicts. By now the older hellburner was phased out of service to make way for its more advanced and better performing counterparts. F-104G- The F-104G “replica’’ Rythena has created was made more for fun and looks over its functionality to be completely honest. The F-104 Incorperates systems from the F-104G and F-104S for the fun of it, and to make it a tad more relevant in the long run. The jet retains the F-104G name because of its design basis (blueprint) being completely aligned with the F-104G, but systematicly, it is related closer to the F-104S due to the fire control radar (NNTC Radar/GPS and HUD). The F-104G has gone on to ‘’Intercept’’ Submarine Hunters and bombers on many multiplayer servers. (Though an unreleased more MP friendly variant was used) The 104s weapons load and amazing avionics make it very fun to fly. The F-104G Remains in service in the RAF as a Fighter/Bomber/Interceptor. The reason an old cold war aircraft remains in service in the RAF mainly has to do with its engine, its radar, and its overall versatility as an aircraft (oh and because the F-104G is cool)
