A3S Aster ( VTOL Multi-role Fighter / Interceptor )

421 RifqiRazandy  3.6 years ago

The A3S is a Supersonic Fighter / Interceptor with VTOL and STOVL capabilities.

This aircraft is my first attempt using the XML editor in simpleplanes.

The A3S uses the same rear engines and fusalage as the regular A3S, other than that everything else is new.

It uses very powerful (athough unrealistic) missiles, guns, and engines. This aircraft is capable of reaching 2600km/h+ with it's rear engine alone, and can reach speeds of over 4000+km/h with its front engine activated (AG1).

To engage the VTOL on this plane use AG1 + VTOL down. When the front engine is activated the red light between the wings will turn on indicating the front engine, gyroscope, and VTOL rcn's are activated.

Speaking of lights thanks to the XML editor this plane also has exterior lights (AG2) and landing lights (will turn on automatically when gear is down).

I've also added flaps (VTOL down) and air brakes (VTOL up) to improve the aircraft's handling at low speeds.

This plane also has a very long range and it's best flown at speeds of over 1500km/h
-VTOL = (AG 1+ VTOL Down)
-Flaps = (VTOL down)
-Exterior Lights = (AG2) .

I know this plane isn't realistic but realism is not my goal with the A3S. Im just experimenting with XML, maybe in the future i'll make a realistic version of this plane. Sorry for my bad english :) I'm Indonesian btw.
