F-227 "Night-Wing" [Modded]

Description
As my first upload to the workshop, thank you for trying out my ship!! The Night-Wing is a modded, multi-role fighter/bomber designed to be survival ready. It consists of one main grid, and two tail fins on rotors. All systems are managed by timers, and it comes fully customize-able for every mission. My goal was to make a stealthy strike-fighter concept based on the F-117 Night-Hawk and it evolved into this beauty. She comes armed with Paragon industries' GAU-8 Rotary Cannon, and is both heavily armored and shielded for laying waste to heavily defended ground targets. She also boasts sufficient wing space for mountable guided missiles, and comes pre-loaded with Whip's LAMP missile launching protocol. Her current operational ceiling is not limited by atmosphere, but her life support systems are. I'm planning on creating an updated version soon that comes mounted with flares [to counter the MWI Guided Missile mod] and a more space-friendly variant [basically just swapping one of the shields with an oxygen tank. Main thrust is to the rear, and this ship is designed to be flown like a real plane, so it does not really support side-to-side strafing. If you have any suggestions please drop them in the comments below! I hope to use this vehicle as the cornerstone on which to build a fleet of stealth-style, low-profile military vehicles. The B2 Bomber is next!!
EDIT-
I have included some screenshots of various internal component changes that could be made depending on what you would like to use it for. Have fun!
EDIT-
It is recommended but not necessary to use Thya's Shield HUD graphical display mod, and an Edge-Be-Gone mod for a full and sexy experience. The links are HERE:
