CAD work in progress.
Only surface outline so far based on drawings.
At certain places like dorsal/upper curves, it's difficult to match exact contours from low res drawings, & 3D views.
Keeping low count of vertices, edges, polygons on old laptop.
I've removed some diagonal edges of low bending quadrilaterals where we don't need a crease, Blender displays them smooth enough.
Many small features are remaining like landing gear doors, sensors, etc.
Considering engine exhaust diameter = 90cm, the max dia. of F414.

The gaps between control surfaces & body have to be angled, otherwise vertical side becomes side reflector.
The following is example of F-22's slat's gap with wing root -

AMCA Static models focus on broad outline & have not shown the feature yet, but the real jet would apparently have it.
