FPR-A11 Gyrfalcon

648 Tengam  6.3 years ago
Auto Credit Based on Mostly's M.W. 366 Falcon Heavy Interceptor Mk.7-30

Fictional History:
Tengania’s answer to the Supermarine Spitfire and P-51 Mustang. Created in the third quarter of WW2, the FPR-A11 Gyrfalcon is the fastest-accelerating prop craft ever built. Although especially succeptable to propeller damage, it can attack both ground and air targets with equal efficiency.

Armament:
8 wing-mounted machine guns
2 Guardian AA missiles
2 Interceptor AA missiles
2 Inferno AG missiles
Almost all other weapons are compatible on the hardpoints.

Controls:
AG-1: Outer propeller activation, to counter potentially damaged engine.
AG-2: Central propeller activation, to counterpotentially damaged engine.
AG-3: Jettison Interceptor missiles.
AG-4: Jettison Guardian missiles.
AG-5: Jettison Inferno missiles.
AG-6: Activate three drag chutes.
VTOL: Spin to counteract wing and/or propeller damage.

Stats:
Top speed: 675mph.
Acceleration: 0-500mph in 7 seconds.
Takeoff at 195mph.

Instructions:
AG 1+2 must be ACTIVATED before takeoff, else propellers will not function.
Central propellers more powerful than outer propellers, so use AG-1 for taxi.

    This is a proof that you can never have too many engines.

    @Mostly Yes, at first I just wanted speed, then I liked the look and decided to make it a fighter. Your design is amazing, it’s so nimble and speedy!

    Quite well done, I like the description. Also, nice design idea! I never thought of putting props where those wing booms were.

    @dootdootbananabus How have I not noticed that before?!? I’ve always seen it as “Submarine”!

    Well, I’m stupid. Edit time!
