Well so are the Raptor's (manufacture started in 1996). What's your point? Also have this thing. Definitely based partly off of it.

It's weird how every plane in NukeOp is based on a failed military bid or a combination of two IRL aircraft, but then there is the Medusa which is kitbash of like 5 different things with no real world analog whatsoever.

it's definitely got a lot of Tacit Blue in it, sort of a futuristic kitbash of that + Su34 nose with Harrier nozzles
just bolting EW pods to one of the existing fighters probably would have been more realistic but it's way cooler to have this incredibly oddball airframe with zero real-world analogues
