The Aircraft uses a technology that was revolutionary for the time, the Radar for aircraft. It also is equipped with 2x 250-pound bombs and 6x unguided rockets along with 4x 20mm Hispano cannons. It is powered by LAI 3000 hp, 8 cylinder engine.

Creator Notes

This is my first attempt on creating a custom cockpit, any hollow spaces where the cockpit canopy is, is where there would be glass IRL. Please land the plane as smooth as possible. The main gear's break torque is low to prevent the aircraft from flipping onto its nose
