La Noma Sloonie Moonbreaker V

405 YeastBoi  4.5 years ago

Serving seven countries around the globe, the Sloonie Moonbreaker V was a swept-wing, supersonic fighter/interceptor and the next evolution of the legendary Sloonie family. The Moonbreaker boasted the highest top speed achieved in level flight by any two-engined airplane, and its maneuverability was only matched by that of the Sovre Starchild. Its very limited fuel and weapons capacity, however, limited its range and versatility.

The sample here is dressed in Macadarlian Arctic Warbird (white with orange and black accents, basically).

Note: just like the Sloonie Solarae, please be careful with pitching down while firing the gun at the same time, especially using keyboard controls. The gun has a tendency to shoot down planes---and not necessarily enemy planes. Also, be careful with doing fancy maneuvers with this plane. It can get... unpredictable at times. From experience.

VTOL slider - folding wings. Neutral position is flight-ready. Bottom position is folded down, though I'm not sure why you would want to do that. Top position is folded up.

2 - arresting hook

6 - landing and taxi lights

7 - navigation lights

The Sloonie Moonbreaker V ties with the S.O.Vre Starchild (mod coming soon) as my fastest turning jets. The Moonbreaker is a natural evolution from earlier jet Sloonies (also coming soon), both from a design perspective and an engine perspective. Those massive BFE300's are only present on Moonbreakers and Solaraes in the Sloonie family.
