A3-B Aster

421 RifqiRazandy  3.4 years ago

The A3-B is a stealth air to ground attack plane with supercruise. This plane is equipped with a semi auto-aiming cannon, arresting hook, and aerial refueling. Also this is my first plane with exterior details.

I built this plane using high physics settings, so if you are using a low physics setting the ailerons might not work, but it won't actually affect the flight performance.

Takeoff
Use full flaps (VTOL down), on the base configuration takeoff speed, is 500km/h.
Landing
Use full flaps (VTOL down), on-base configuration the landing speed is around 320km/h.
Once you touch down if you want to stop as fast as possible put the spoilers on (VTOL up)

AG1 = Activate Stealth Mode

Once AG1 is turned on all of the external weapons bay will be closed. Which means all weapons contained in it will be disarmed. Also once AG1 is activated the engines will switch to silent mode, which means afterburners are disabled and the responsiveness is decreased. Also, all exterior lights will be turned off.

AG2 = Activate Gyroscope

It turns on the gyroscope, which stabilize the aircraft.

AG3 = Jettison

It'll launch all weapons in all pylons. You should have stealth mode turned off if you want to Jettison your weapons, it will work with the stealth mode activated, but it won't be realistic.
DO NOT DO THIS OF THE PLANE IS PITCHING DOWN.

AG4 = Activate Remote Cannon

The remote cannon is partially automated. The heading of the cannon is automated to whatever is your locking into, but you have to control the gun depression yourself. The gun depression is controlled using the Trim. If you are using Remote Cannon the aircraft trim will be deactivated. If you want to hit targets accurately you can couple AG4 with the gyro (AG2).

AG5 = Exterior Lights

It turns on exterior lights. It will shut off if stealth mode is turned on.

AG6 = Extend Aerial Refueling Probe

It doesn't actually work :). You can use this along with the gyro (AG2) to stabilize the jet.

AG7 = Extend Arresting Hook

This plane is not meant for carrier operations, but it is capable of landing on a carrier. USS Beast one, not the Tiny one.

WEAPONS

The base configuration is equipped with 2 stealth cruise missiles (CRAX), 2 Smol Cleaver, 8 Inferno Mk2s, and 2 Guardians (AIM 9x). All the missiles that come with the base configuration are XML edited.

This jet has a total of 21 attachment point, 9 of them are external.
BLUE
The blue ones are meant for Bombs, Torpedos, Rocket Pod's, and anything smaller. It's not meant for carrying missiles.
ORANGE
The orange ones are meant for Missiles.
BLACK
The black ones are only meant for the weapons that are already there.
RED
The red one is meant for Boom 50s and anything smaller.
WHITE
The white ones are meant for Guardians and Infernos only.

Thank you, sorry for my bad English. I'm Indonesian btw :).
Sorry for the low details and low-quality screenshot my phone is from 2016. :)

    You know I was trying to get the icebase back did as what you said and I was going abit to fast so I was about to restart as soon as I hear the explosion I did not and except I heard the glass breaking keep in mind I had the VTOL all the way up so it can't withstand a punch in a face that's mighty impressive

    the design is quite nice. and i like the idea of an automated turret. maybe this can encourage a next gen of light bombers?
