Backstory
The development of the Breslau Tumbler started in 1968 when the Prussian Navy wanted a Anti-Submarine Bomber to protect their aircraft carriers out at sea. The Company, Spandau, Quickly jumped in to promise that they would get the plane to the Navy in the next 2 years. They did keep to their promise. the first flight of the SB-1 Breslau Tumbler named after the Prussian pigeon took place on the 28 of June, 1970. It performed exceptionally well in it's intended roll and the Navy ordered 200 of the new aircraft. Then another arm of the military looked at the newly built plane and ordered 50 of the the planes. that branch was the air force. the reason they bought the Anti-Submarine Bomber was that the Prussian air force has a lot of bases that are not too far from the ocean. Therefore they ordered them, plus in world war II the German Kriegs Marine surrounded the relatively small nation via U-boat. And at the time Prussia not having fought a war for 60 years and having had good relations with it's neighbors didn't bother to buy Anti-Submarine warfare weapons.

Guide To Fly
The plane does handle pretty well, just be very gentle when flying. To land put the throttle to about 44 - 46%, and while doing that put down the flaps using VTOL down. Then when slow enough, activate the air brakes by pressing Ag2.

Ag1 = Arrester hook
Ag2 = Air Brakes
