Auto Credit Based on NothingMuch's F-5E Tiger II

The F-5E Tiger II is an American fighter with a top speed of 1,080 mph. The plane is armed with 2x AIM 9 Sidewinders and 2x M39 cannons that have 280 rounds. The F-5 also has chaff and flares. The plane I have built so far is the USAF version so it dosen’t have a aresster hook. CONTOLS: VTOL: Flaps. Act 1: Jettison weapons. Act 2: Drag Chute. Act 3: Ejection Seat. Act 4: Open Cockpit. Engine: When the throttle is over 50% power the afterburners turn on so for longer flights use 20-30% power. Landing: when landing use flaps and go on low power if you have to much of a bank angle the suspension can break or the plane can crash. Flight: The flight preformence is ok and is not meant for stunts and can lock up at times so be aware. Final notes: I hope you enjoy this 5 day long project.
