AIDC Ching-Kuo F-CK-1 (IDF)

Role: Multi-role light fighter, Maritime attack
Builder: Aerospace Industrial Development Corporation (AIDC)
Variants: F-CK-1A, F-CK-1B
Operators: Taiwan


The Ching-Kuo is an indigenous fighter developed by Taiwan in cooperation with major US aerospace industries. The Indigenous Defensive Fighter (IDF) was named after the late Taiwanese president Ching-Kuo. The aircraft's primary mission is that of air defense carrying the indigenous Tien Chien (Sky Sword) I Sidewinder-equivalent and the Beyond Visual Range (BVR) medium range Tien Chien II. The multi-role aircraft can also be used in the ground attack role or the maritime attack role using its multi-mode Golden Dragon GD-53 radar, which is a license built version of the Westinghouse AN/APG-67(V). For the maritime attack role the aircraft can be equipped with up to three indigenous Hsing Feng II AShM. Internally the Ching-Kuo carries the M61A1 Vulcan 20mm cannon.

Developed by AIDC in cooperation with General Dynamics the Ching-Kuo has a lot or resemblances with the F-16 but also other US aircraft like the F/A-18 Hornet and the F-20 Tigershark. The nose is taken from the F-20 Tigershark, the sleek fuselage and wing layout from the F-16, whereas the center placed side air intakes for the engines are positioned in similar fashion as on the YF-17 or F/A-18. The cockpit strongly resembles the F-16 and it equipped with a wide angle HUD, two MFD, a side stick, HOTAS and has a 30 degree declined Martin Baker Mk.12 ejection seat.

The Ching-Kuo is smaller and has shorter range than the F-16. Powered by two license built 42 kN (9500 lb) TFE1042-70 turbofans it is underpowered in comparison with other fighters. However the smaller war load compensates for this, although the aircraft's maximum speed is only Mach 1.2 reportedly.

There are two variants of the Ching-Kuo. The F-CK-1A is reportedly the designation for the single-seat variant and the F-CK-1B is the two-seat equivalent. Although the B is used for operational conversion and training, it retains its combat capability.

Specifications:
Powerplant: two 42.08 kN (9,460 lb st) ITEC (Garrett/AIDC) TFC1042-70 (F125) afterburning turbofans (some sources state 41.1 others 42.3 KN)

Dimensions: length 14.21m (46 ft 7 in); height 4.65m (15 ft 3 in); wing span 9.46m (30 ft 11 in)

Weights: empty 6486 kg (14,300 lb); Max Take-Off Weight 12.247 kg (27,000 lb)

Performance: max level speed 'clean' at level, estimated, Mach 1.2 or 1275 km/h (792 mph); service ceiling estimated 16760m (55,000 ft)

Armament: one M61A1 Vulcan 20mm multi-barrel cannon; up tp kg (,000 lb) of ordnance, including Maverick AMS, Hsing Feng (Male Bee) II AShM, free fall bombs, cluster bombs, rocket pods, Tien Chien (Sky Sword) I/II AAMs, and/or up to three auxiliary fuel tanks carried on four under wing, two wingtip and one or alternatively two fuselage stations.

Yes Its Hard to GUESS! I think its Mirage-2000 (Double Cockpit) or Mirage-F1.
GOOD LUCK :thumbsup:
Nope!
Mirage 2000 has a classic delta wing and F-1 doesn't use VGC wing like the F-111, SU-24, F-14, Tornado etc..
Try again.
