IST White Dolphin

Transonic-Supersonic stratospheric research aircraft.

It is designed to reach a very high point of level flight in Droo's atmosphere.

It was developed with the assistance of the CXS team, MAHGONGTECH, SKST and J-DROO, the latter for flight tests and component reliability regarding the new engines.

Its maximum speed is 630 m/s (Mach 1.8) at an altitude of 25,300 meters at sea level.

It was originally going to be built under a design similar to the Concorde, although it was concluded that it was not the most efficient way to reach the highest points of Droo's atmosphere in that way.

It ended up opting for a Tailed Delta design instead of a pure Delta Wing as this improved lift at maximum altitude and allowed for an acceptable transonic transition.

It really is a Transonic-Supersonic aircraft since it does not go beyond Mach 1.7 although it exceptionally fulfills its primary objective, to be a stratospheric aircraft.

The angle at which it is placed allows it to rise without touching the elevation controls, it is recommended to use the hud sphere heading lock controls.

Afterburners and inlet vanes are recommended to be used once the turbofan stage has reached full speed. At a maximum altitude of 10,000 meters.

AGGRESSIVE MANEUVERS SHOULD NOT BE CARRIED OUT UNDER ANY REASON, THIS AIRPLANE IS NOT TOLERANT TO FLIGHT PILOTING ERRORS.

For stratospheric flight it is recommended to go in a straight line above 10,000 meters.

Before making any research flight, the route must be planned in advance.

it is not a passenger plane, from the beginning it was designed to carry a handful of scientists, engineers and Droonauts un training, counting the pilots.

It is painted to look like a SSTO vehicle but it doesn't.

there is a low probability that the engines could have a missfire, there is some realism in the new inlet design
