Can this fly?
YES
This is fighta-bomba after all...

Welp, simple attack plane


Flight behavior

  • Well, quite manouverable(really-unreally).
  • Yaw must be compensated with roll (duh,just dont touch it till you performing trying to land procedure).
  • Supersonic (yeeeeeeeeeeeeeee)
  • Tail heavy (I am full of sandwich)
  • Not so stable on manouvers ( still doesn't performs high AoA turns )
  • No airbrakes

Technical notes

  • Not carrierborne (but you always may try)
  • Takeoff

    1. Atleast 50% throttle

    2. Turn on 270 km/h (TAS)

    3. Profit

  • Landing

    1. Cut throttle

    2. Achieve touchdown on 270-310 km/h

    3. Le profit

  • Armament

    1. Machine guns 6x (pffft)

    2. Rocket pods 2x (14 rockets overall)

    3. Bombs 4x (Boom 25)

    4. No countermeasures

  • Le Speedo

    1. Can reach about 1300 km/h (1289 km/h on 2000 m)
    2. Climb vertically (is nice)
    3. Wing loading is quite big, but the drag isn't (acceleration is MAD)

    Le side notes

    kinda first of the things that flew, kinda old, outdated we'd like to say
    (--but yo just wrote it)
    And remember : NO REFUNDS
