BBW PB-5

3,470 CustomAircraftMods  4.2 years ago

Bomford Boat Works has been raking in the money it’s getting from the PB-4 (go check it out!) and has decided to make another venture with this; the PB-5. While looking like a confused crab on 6 wheels, it is one of the most efficient amphibious landing vehicles around! I comes standard with:
-2 sliding doors for easier unloading
-360 rotating turret
-2x 50mm automatic cannons
-1x .50 cal MG
-32x flares
-room for 12 fully equipped troops (but no interior sadly)

Controls are very interesting!
Throttle- drive with wheels
Brake- brake (duh)
Rudder/Yaw- steering for both land and water
Throttle+AG1- jets for water usage
Roll- Enhanced steering for water usage
Landing Gear- retract wheels for water usage
VTOL- Turret Rotation
Trim- Gun elevation

Enjoy!
