This is the Vickers Victory Bomber Type C. It was a concept Super Bomber from WW2. It was proposed by Vickers as an aircraft that could carry the Grand Slam bomb. A number of concepts were drawn up for the bomber, this one obviously being the Type C.
If you're interested in what the other concepts looked like, either google it and dig around a bit, or take a look at some of my earlier (not to scale) uploads.
All the turrets work, although there are certain points you shouldn't shoot at! I recommend you try to land this at about 65% throttle as lower speeds cause the nose to pitch down. A couple of bombs are located in the belly of the craft, so feel free to drop those wherever you please, so long as it's not over my house.
Anyway, until next time, Happy Flying!!

@RedHawk thank you for your kind words and thank you for the upvote!!
Super cool, congrats on getting mod btw!
@Eckosong Just double checked my findings and I was wrong, it just has a fast acceleration, even at high throttle values.
@Eckosong it flies too fast, but there's a weird feature about this plane. When I fly it it seems to has two top speeds. If you ease the throttle up, you should notice that it seems to reach a top speed, where further throttle increase doesn't do a whole lot, but then once you pass a certain point, it continues to accelerate rapidly until it reaches its actual top speed. Odd. The top speed of this is actually too fast compared to the real thing's theoretical top speed, but any lower than the one I used and the nose pitches downward.
Nice!
@Squirrel The Flying Squirrel Fails again.
Nice work man, this thing is large and in charge.
@Flightsonic It would be quite unfortunate If I couldn't XD
@Squirrel Haha! At least you have the powers to put this back up :D
@Flightsonic I know, I accidentally hit the remove post because of my internet lagging (it does that when SP is open). I accidentally clicked to the side of the download button before the mod menu came up, then thinking I was in the clear I clicked on the drop down menu to edit the description, just as the mod menu opened, so instead of clicking on edit, I clicked on remove post! XD
@Squirrel I don't think you meant to paste that
