Auto Credit Based on Mustangflyer's WWII dive bomber challenge!!!!

North American Aviation took the P51 Mustang mk1 and added dive brakes, bomb racks and a strengthened wing and created a dive bombing ground attack fighter that saw its baptism of fire in 1943. Short lived and with a production run of about 500 units the Apache was a mixed success.

    6\10, looks great, only reason why 6\10 is that when flying, plane randomly jumps.

    This is pretty nice! The shape is decent and you’ve got a cool cockpit! If you moved the CoL further back though (by making the horizontal stabilisers larger or main wings smaller) it would fly better and be more manoeuvrable
