Vulture Mk I

4,407 CaptBlackadder  7.7 years ago

This is the new British long distance attack fighter with amazing manoeuverability. This was produced to take over for the less heavy weight, and less manoeuverable Vengeance. Has 4 cannons, can hold 3,000 or more lbs of bombs without sacrificing very much handling, it has a 300 mile range at 5,000 ft and 50% throttle. Developed in 1944 along with the American P-38 but with differences in capabilities.
SIDE NOTE:
The Flying Fox was a by product of making this plane, not the other way round
