Project :"Super X 1000"

This is the ultimate fighter. It is stealth, it is low cost,excellent maneuverability...Sure it needs some upgrades but it is an ideal platform for BVR and WVR fights.
I would replace all metal parts with composite materials, which shouldn't cost much considering that most of the airframe is made out of wood and cloth, which is stealth by default.
Give me some time and I'll post all the modifications here... This will be some kick a$$ airplane.

The irony is that the Fokker Dr1 entered service just as the Sopwith Triplane which inspired it was being replaced. I don't think the two types met in combat.

Who resuscitated a two year old thread?

Can this be locked? I hate x vs y threads and I thought the forum had banned them as well.
