One of the technicians gives me the thumbs up to fire up the engines. I start up the rest of the systems on the Hornet and they whir up, quickly starting up. The technicians run a few tests on the engines while I sit in the roosterpit with the canopy closed. I shut the engines down again after they complete the tests, everything seems to be good and I should be able to depart within the hour.

You're more likely to get tortured as a sniper, you know.

I listen to a South Aesthian broadcast while the new engines are installed on the Hornet, one of the technicians in the hangar comments about how they were originally replacements for a Mercanan Super Hornet, and that the engines had more bang for your buck while being more fuel efficient. The engines would probably let me get up to maximum speed faster with the vastly improved thrust.

I sigh and continue to calibrate the new electronics that came with the package.

they use the depleted uranium to make heavy bullets that go through tanks like butter.

But

They're inside the car?


I have never seen a car that does not automatically unlock the car door when you try to open it from the inside.

even brand new cars don't do that

The Hornet is refitted with completely new electronics as a part of the repairs, I hop in the roosterpit and initialize the systems as I put on the new helmet that came with the upgrade package. The helmet's HUD and the plane's electronics display everything in a hexagonal grid as green letters pop up in the middle of the HUD, everything about the interface is completely different from the Hornet's original avionics.

[ SYSTEM INITIALIZED ]
Building pilot profile..
Age: 22
love: F-

*CLICK*

I turn off the displays and let out a frustrated groan as the system cycles through and completes building the profile before turning it back on to familiarize myself with the new system. I turn it off after about half of an hour figuring out how it works and what new functions the system has. I take off the helmet and climb out of the Hornet, going back to replace and install new panels on the Hornet.

There's room for that, just remove your countermeasures.

A liquid cooling system is not going to be effective if you're doing high-speed turns constantly, plus it's pretty much the equivalent to carrying extra fuel that you can't use.

"see ya later its like 3 in the morning i gotta go check up on my actual girlfriend: an airplane"

It's a specialty made machine!


I watch as both engines are lifted out of the fuselage by a small crane while I replace a panel on the Hornet. The canopy glass had already been replaced and the right wing was spotless.
