The Morgenroete F-104 Ghost is a single-seat, twin-engine, all-weather stealth tactical fighter aircraft. The aircraft was designed primarily as an air superiority fighter, with ground attack, electronic warfare, and signal intelligence capabilities. The aircraft was designated as the F-104 in 2008 and formally entered service in September 2015. The aircraft is currently in service with multiple nations: the Royal Gristo-Serkonan Air Force, air combat units of the Moxaney Armed Forces, the Ghantish Air Force(TBD).
The aircraft was initially a joint development project between the Office of Defence Research, a government research and development agency, and of Morgenroete Skunkworks, the advanced development division of Morgenroete Aerospace. The F-104 aircraft development program began in 1993, however the increasing development costs and the development of new production techniques forced the Gristo-Serkonan government to approach foreign partners to co-develop the aircraft in 2000. The aircraft is designed by the F-104 Design Consortium, a multinational consortium set up by under a cooperation agreement between x states Gristol-Serkonos, Moxaney, Ghant, (TBD). Manufacturing of the F-104 provided by Morgenroete Aerospace.
