Auto Credit Based on Willthagoat1111's variable swing wing challenge example
The CAI Albatross was a twin-engined swing wing fighter. It was a small aircraft, small engines, small fuselage, small everything. Being compact however had some advantages, such as harder to be hit in a dogfight, and easier to store in small areas. The Albatross had 3 Sidewinder MK II missiles, lacking a gun or gun pod. It was used for intercepting bombers and as a combat air to air vehicle. The aircraft were normally flown in groups of up to 3 of the same aircraft, which made a huge impact on the war. The Albatross was also named the Phantom, due to its similarity to the F-4 Phantom, or the Greymouse, due to its small size. “Pilots don’t die, they just fly higher” -me, probably
