F-40A Basilisk

The F-40A is an absolute air superiority trump card made by REHL, this fighter, designed specifically with dogfighting in mind, it is supermanuverable, has TVC, Semi-Stealth tech, and a GAU-8 Avenger. This may very well be REHL's biggest success ever, up there with its popular early helicopters. However, this is not to say that there were ever an abundance of them, because they were incredibly expensive, and were able to fly entire combat missions solo, leading to much smaller production numbers. With the original A variant being built in the year 2029, the fighter had many updates and variants, and the most modern variants stayed in service to the year 2086.
