50.3k Stingray  5.8 years ago
Auto Credit Based on Stingray's 104 Widowmaker

A.K.A the Widowmaker. Reproduction of a fast, inverted-dihedral wing Lockheed design. Armed. Model is Mach 2+. Be careful at speeds below 900 mph or you will crash in the sea on Jundroo. (Similar to flying the real article.) Germany grounded it's F-104G fleet in 1966. Note: Germany started buying other factory builds, such as Tornados and Migs, eventually, post cold-war.

This F-104G build includes Lockheed built-in air-to-ground capabilities, circa 1960, via adapted Jundroo cleavers and Infernos.
- Includes Sidewinder (Guardian} missiles tested via Air-Air combat.
- Includes the 1960s era, 100-rounds-per-second revolving Vulcan Cannon (still in use on the USAF F-22).

Germany lost about 100 pilots in the 1960s during F-104G training. When you crash in the Jundroo sea, remember, this is only a digital game.

Instructions the tricky manned aircraft F-104G build:

  1. Set Pitch down 1/4 on takeoff (flaps) then return pitch to normal. Retract gear.
  2. Select AA for Sidewinders (Jundroo guardians) for air-air encounters.
  3. Recommend jettison the Sidewinders (via AG=1) before ground attacks.

  4. Air-Ground missiles with 10-mile range (cleavers per Jundroo) launch via target lock-on and Icon Missile Fire selection.

  5. Close range effective infernos (6 of them) best fired fired via Ag=6 to demolish sea Carrier targets. Or to demolish Jundroo bridges.

  6. Guns=Guns icon. Efective distance at high speeds about 2 miles; at low speeds. level flight about 6 miles. This gun will carve up any Jundroo target, especially the USS Beast.

    I was fairly carefull here, and I disagree about the symbols, reason: they remain extremely correct for the Cold War 1960s-1970s era. As recently as 1999 the German Air Force posted the straight cross insignia [absolutely not the historical swastica] on Mig-29s and Tornados. Germany participated in the Kosovo campaign with the newer aircraft. @SledDriver

    I think you might be in violation of the rules with this one :) you're not supposed to have Nazi symbology on anything other than authentic Nazi planes.
