Description

The F-41 Gladiator is a 5th generation multi-role air supremacy fighter aircraft designed and built by AeroTech Industries in 2021. Equipped with an ADMM unit which holds 80 multirole missiles, it can clear the skies from enemies for extended time periods, or destroy a convoy in less than a minute. During testing it was discovered that it can sink the USS Beast and the two destroyers in a matter of seconds.
The F-41 is also very agile, and this gives it an advantage during dogfights. Even though it was designed for the air force, the Gladiator can be operated on aircraft carriers and has V/STOL (Vertical/Short Take-off and Landing) capabilities.

Weaponry

• 80x ADMM Multi-Use missiles
• MG-55 Minigun
• 50mm ground attack gun (use it to destroy stuff like bridges)

How to use VTOL

1. Activate AG7 (VTOL engine) and press on AG8 (Main engine) once to disable it.
2. Go at full power. After a few seconds you should start lifting off.
3. Wait one second from when you lift off. At this point you should be at a higher altitude. When you’re there deactivate AG7 (VTOL engine) and activate AG8 (Main engine) and AG1 (Afterburner).
4. Retract the landing gear and then disengage the afterburner (AG1) when you’ve gathered enough speed. If you want you can also keep flying with it activated.
