NOTE: This is a re-upload of the Phantom III. The original did not do very well and I want to see whether it’s just because it’s bad or because of bad timing of upload. No systems have been changed.

PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!
This is only a basic overview of the aircraft. For more advanced information and different versions of it including the original version amongst others, please look to the bottom of this description for a google docs link!

Ladies and Gentlefellows, may I present to you the official release of my very first original aircraft. All of this is from the mysterious depths of my mind. Before I continue with this possible failure I would like to thank AviaaLHR1 for being my test pilot for this. I really appreciate it and am looking for more of you to be test pilots in the future, so if you’re interested pop a comment down below and I’ll get back to you. Anyways on with the formalities:

The GR-414 Phantom III is a new step for the engineers at Britania Aerospace Industries (BAI). Packed full with the latest sensatory technology, this ground attack gunship is a force to be reckoned with. Designed and built in 3 years the Phantom III has cost BAI a hefty £23bn in development costs but is due to make profits within 5 years of operations due to a major deal signed with the Royal Janland Air Force (an overseas branch of Britain’s RAF). Designed purely to give a leathal blow to any target, the Phantom III is equiped with revolutionary guided ordinance and ‘the old cold steel’ bombs which sometimes are the best at vanquishing targets.

The aircraft itself was designed to carry a hefty load so is not the most agile of aircraft. It occasionally can become out of control wilst in a steep turn. There is no recognised manufacturer policy on how to recover but the dive can be levelled by putting the stick in a neutral position and pulling on the flaps but that requires a lot of altitude. For this reason aerobatics or high G-force turns are not recommended unless the following criteria are met:
1. The throttle is at full and speed is >400mph
2. The ailtitude is >15,000ft

The systems aboard the Phatom III are as follows:
AG1: Navigational lights and strobes
AG2: Landing lights and strobes
AG3: Active ground strafing cannons
AG4: Jettison underslung fuel tanks
AG5: Jettison unguided weponry
AG6: Jettison guided weaponry
AG7: Deploy ground parachute brake
AG8: ~
VTOL- Flaps

On takeoff the aircraft has to have assitance from the flaps to get into the skies. The procedure for takeoff is VTOL fully down and then no further control inputs until all wheels are off the ground.

The aircraft which is available for purchase from this screen is in the colours of the RJAF’s No. 17 Squadron. Seventeen Sqn specialise in ground attack and every aircraft assigned to it all gain the distinct arrow motif on the vertical stabiliser. This particular aircraft (Number 32, registration XX54932) is flown by Wing Commander Jonothan Lewis with his Weapons System Operator being Flight Lieutenant Sabine Martinenco.
