Description
From Project - Advanced Autonomous Aerial Combat System (A.3.C.S). The XF-165 Shadow Hawk is an Advanced Unmanned Stealth Aircraft developed to be a Multirole Fighter with VTOL capability. 2 Adaptive Versatile Engines are installed on the XF-165 to improve performance and fuel efficiency. Twin engine design with wide-angle thrust vectoring provides more thrust from main engines during vertical takeoff and landing as well as better maneuverability. Vertical engine and lift fans are integrated into the fuselage and wings.

Two Secondary Internal weapons bays can mount up to 4 Air-to-Air missiles. The Primary Internal weapons bay is configurable to mount either Air-to-Air or Air-to-Ground Weapons. 40x Guided Rocket Pods and 2x 30mm Gatling Cannons are installed on the XF-165 for Close Air Support (CAS). AGM-129 Advanced Cruise Missile (ACM) is also an armament option for the XF-165 for nuclear warfare. Operation is through remote commands to execute missions and complete certain objectives, while computers perform flight control, combats, and complete Objectives.

In this illustration of XF-165, all weapons, landing gears, and lift fans are deployed. Wings tips and tail wings are positioned at an angle to increase stability and maneuverability at low speed. The aircraft is at the stage of vertical take-off or landing with internal weapons bays displayed.
