- Abstract
The paper presents an affordable low observable concept for a very light strike-fighter plane, using a mixture of high and low tech. Currently for a small defense budget, trying to comply with leading military standards enables a small number of fourth generation warplanes, typically degraded with respect to essential capabilities such as air defense and deep strike, due to the restrictions in purchase of high performance weaponry. A solution is to eliminate standard compliance and adopt cost effective solutions, based on a mix of proven items and newly emerging technologies, in an attempt to obtain better solutions than degraded fourth generation warplane as available on the market.
