Well obviously magic plays the biggest role. I'm no engineer, I don't rightly know airplane technology and the physics behind it, so I'll have magic with some bullshit plot twist take care of it, but there are roots in real tech.
For example the carrying capacity (almost all powerful magic deals with weight / weightlessness) and the jet can't carry more than XYZ, as a parallel to the limitations of a real jet. The F-14 for example carries a maximum of 4 rockets on the belly station, and another 4 on the wing hardpoints, while also being fitted with a gatling-gun. Obviously in the novel those are not real life missiles but magic projectiles and sorcerous substances such as explosives.
There are 3 magics in the world, or at least 3 disciplines of study and observation. Fire-based magic, weight / gravity based magic and potions / substances (I REFUSE to call it alchemy, as it's not nearly the same concept, not even close). Out of these three comes the means to combat these hellish fighter jets.
Make no mistake though, the book has a plot of its own, characters of its own and it does not revolve around these subjects although I go sufficiently in depth.

Don't care how much it takes honestly. It's a side thing, won't quit my day job anytime soon, and I DO intend on making a good job and writing a good novel.
