Auto Credit Based on gustaf's Horten ho 229 sneak peak

this is my second releas of this projeckt and with many improvements is now has 14 R4M rockets just like the real one and two bombs also like the real one. it also has two canons. i fixet the flaps that now work and added airbrakes(vtol). major design inprovments changing the entire cockpit and tail and also added a diferent colored underside. The Horten 229 was the worlds first jet aircraft using a flying wing design without a tail. it flew the first time as early as in 1945 and was way ahed of its time. it is a fighter designed to take out other bombers or fighters and can also cary 2 bombs. the speed of my model closley represents the top speed of the real thing. this plane inspierd and laid the ground for planes like the f-§§7 and the b-2 bomber
