My answer to YuYsukablyat's Light Strike Challenge: Now with upgraded cockpit and fancy French paint job

The AeroSud Chasseur-Bombardier Legere. It's an Aerosud Dauphin trainer with the second cockpit deleted. The room and weight thus saved is used for a set of heavy autocannons and an extension of rear landing gear bulges to form two enclosed bomb bays. (Activate5 to open). However it still retained the underwing hardpoints of the original in case the mission demands ordinance over speed.

(* I finally got around to posting the original Aerosud Daupin HERE albeit with some upgrades)

Flying is pretty straightforward. The craft is generally viceless and will take off on its own at 275 mph with full flaps down. Tops out at 600 mph in level flight, Can go supersonic in dives.

Other than that:
- Activate1= Cockpit,
- Activate2 = Tail Hook for carrier operations,
- Activate5 = Open/close bomb bays.
- VTOL down: flaps
- VTOL up: Air Brakes
- (Brake: wheel brakes and air brakes as well)

That's all for now

Happy Landings!
