Background

The GB-5 is an early-jet interceptor, designed purely for intercepting large and/or far away targets with Fox 1 missiles. It is not designed for dogfighting or air superiority. That is for the GB-4 to do. But it is more than capable at it. Designed as the other bordering nations develop and purchase their own jet aircraft’s, I thought that I should too. And here we are!

Instructions

VTOL=Flaps
AG7=Canopy

Landing:

maintain a speed around 220mph and keep it until touchdown. Full brake then. Just so you are aware it can reject takeoffs at speeds of even 280mph! You have nothing to worry about if you take off or land at those speeds. Just don’t land beyond the runway’s landing markings.

Purchase

You can negotiate purchases for this plane and others for @DeeganishCountryBall’s roleplay with me in the comments
