Default I require a very fast jet

But hopefully a littel wiser.....

Lomchevak, I'm guessing here but that super sharp leading edge may have been the cause of your problems. I'll bow to the airfoil pundits but I remember seeing that a super sharp leading edge can cause intermittent separation bubbles under some situations. If you'd even let it have a 1/8 inch diameter then it would probably have been a whole different story. The Starfighter had that airfoil for transonic and supersonic flight. And according to Dustflyer we don't go that fast.......
