Pikeovlev F/A.2 Stingray Mk.2

Auto Credit Based on PikeovlevPlanes's Pikefighter

As more NATO aircraft fill the skies, it has become hard if not impossible for aircraft like the Archer to reach defended targets, like the airbase, so a fast strike aircraft with Inferno missiles and Interceptors for self-defense was made. It was named the Stingray. Pressing 1 or 2 manually deploys four infernos at once that can be used with or without guidance.

    @PikeovlevPlanes Oh ok, I thought it was either trim or TVC

    It is mixed power to provide excellent performance at a good range of altitudes. VTOL nozzles are located in the tail, and the VTOL slider is not supposed to be used, but it is hard to get rid of. Also, spins only happen when you rotate sideways, you are describing uncontrolled flipping whilst stalled as a result of directing the force of four VTOL jets downwards.@Seabo14

    Nice plane, but what is the VTOL for? One minor adjustment, and it goes into a nose forward spin.
