Fieseler Fi-167

Auto Credit Based on Scottydoestuff's Fi-167 with Bombs

All credit for the original design goes to the user Scottydoestuff. A '30s-era German torpedo bomber intended for use with the aircraft carrier "Graf Zeppelin" before the project was cancelled, and was one of the few biplanes to ever have folding wings. 1 activates the main gun, 2 activates the turret (VTOL/Trim), 3 detaches the landing gear, and 4 controls the folding wings (VTOL). Historically the detachable landing gear was to provide a smoother emergency water landing, so I have made the plane slightly buoyant. It's not a seaplane, but it'll land on water if needed. NOTE: Landing is pretty hard, so be careful. Takeoff can be a little annoying, so make sure to use the rudder. Works best when taking off from the Ice Base or from the USS Beast aircraft carrier.
