Sorry for no pictures-I wasn't able to fly it on my phone
Year: 1974

Manufacturer: Asteroid Industries

Description:
The Asteroid Industries As-19 was a delta-wing multirole fighter-bomber capable of taking it's payload to be...delivered...behind enemy lines. Famous or its touchy thrust-vectoring system, the Spectre could reach an astonishing Mach 2.5 at altitude, and pull maneuvers at Mach 1 at lower altitudes. It could carry incredibly heavy payloads under its large delta wing, and with Assistive Canard Maneuvering Systems (ACMS), it could outmaneuver almost any fighter of its time.

Controls:
Act. 1 - ACMS
Act. 2 - Thrust vectoring (be careful-there's no roll)
Act. 3 - Afterburner
Act. 4 - Airbrakes
Trim for trim, No flaps on this one.
Note
It'll overmaneuver at the right speed, but since there's only one engine you'll only be able to use yaw and pitch. I highly suggest using a pulse of the afterburner as well, or else you might just fall from the sky. Also, I did a lot of research on the inlet, which actually works like it should with all the vents and everything. The side and aft top vents close at 382 mph, and the cone and top vent move at 1140 mph. If you have it in Km, it'll be wildly off so keep that in mind.

    This is amazing! It reminds me of a MiG-21 Analog but modernised. Lovely build!
