Hi polarit.
Yes! The United States have some degree of assist in the design, because of the restrictions on engine thrust the United States, Goshawk Fighter can only be a light Fighter.
Maiden flight in a cold days of heavy rain

RE: Goshawk Fighter
After about half year building,I finally finished my single-seat Goshawk fighter maiden flight.It flied so smoothly and the Behotec JB-180 supply the very powerful thrust.I usually use about 80% power to make most maneuvers,even the loop. The functional canapy compled my dream of scale model -put the movable pilot figure in & out the cockpit and make any posture!
