Skylark Aerospace C-12D VultureThe Skylark Aerospace C-12D Vulture is a multirole, supersonic, twin tail, twin engine, VTOL, all-weather, thrust-vectored, twin-seater, delta-winged, super-cruise, medium-large fighter bomber.When G High Command commissioned a new multirole 5th generation fighter-bomber in 2020, Skylark Aerospace was first on the list to build it. The enemy had achieved air superiority over the Pacific Ocean and G had no decent aircraft to outdo their forces; and ageing, obsolete A1 Menace ground attack and fighter was being retired from service and was eventually decommissioned.The High Command wanted a all-rounder aircraft that could serve anytime, anywhere, with any conditions and armed with anything. Skylark had just commissioned a new project anyway: “Skylark Aerospace Combatant teen-series fighter-bomber aircraft project.” The fighter that Skylark would come up with would shock the world.Flight Data:Wingspan 36.8ftLength 62.1 FtHeight 14.1 FtEmpty Weight 28,584 lbs (12,965kg)Loaded Weight 39,503 lbs (17,918kg)Power/weight ratio 2.901Wing Loading 53.21bs/ft^2Wing area 743.2ft^2Control:Skylark C-12D Vulture:AG1: EJECT AG2: Thrust Vectoring/disable AoA limiter/PSMAG3: Master armAG4: Arresting HookAG5: VTOL + Gyro (VTOL slider + AG5 for VTOL engine throttle, trim slider + AG5 for VTOL swivel. I do not recommend the swivel as there are also main engines. All controls return mentioned switch to default on AG5 deactivation. The gyroscope is very powerful so you cannot do aerobatics with VTOL on. WARNING: DO NOT YAW WITH TVC ACTIVE AS IT IS VERY POWERFUL AND YOU WILL STALL.)AG6: Refuel probeAG7: CanopyAG8: All power (engines, lights, controls, cockpit.
