This is the third generation of Cjredwards's C-17 Globemaster. JacobHardy64 improved the original and I have added to and improved his. I made it less tail-heavy and I painted it different. It didnt need different paint, but it got some anyway. My biggest change was the transition to the unfortunately fictional* AC-17 Wraith. If there was a squadron of these floating around the Middle East, Al-Qaeda would surrender at once**. It takes off like any normal plane. Functions:
1+VTOL down: Raises landing gear.
2+VTOL: Controls side gun. VTOL down 90% stows gun away. Yaw left fires gun.
3 & 4: Drop bombs
5 & 6: Fire missiles.
I hope you enjoy this beast. Be sure to use it only for good uses, like defeating the evil emperor. Have fun!
*If any Boeing engineers or Air Force generals are reading this, could you please make or request a few of these? I dont need them personally, but I just want them to exist.
**Sorry about the rather tasteless joke. If any soldiers or vets read this, I thank you deeply for your service.
Although I'm sure you'd like/have liked a few of these assigned to your platoon.

28.1k KerlonceauxIndustries@LordofLego I think the Convair B-36 Peacemaker loaded with incendiary bombs and cannons would be much more scary than this. And also armed with earthquake bombs.8.8 years ago

28.1k KerlonceauxIndustriesI know something better than this, a super airship the the size of the unfortunately-never-was-built-but-would-have-been-huge USS United States, and armed with two bomb bays for man-made asteroids of gunpowder filled iron balls, huge battleship guns (3 on each side), two massive laser cannons (bow and stern ends of the airship), a platform inside the balloon to launch heavy twin-engine propeller fighters, and 10 heavy (and nonexistent) earthquake missile launchers (4 missiles per launcher, 5 launchers on each side, port and starboard). One of those would make anyone surrender almost immediately (I guessed correctly). With a fleet of them, you could do anything (And nuclear weapons are never necessary, in fact, what you really need is a super laser array in space, orbiting Earth, and remotely operated.8.9 years ago
