The Cyclops is a versatile ground attack aircraft designed to hit hard and be hit back in return. Despite being heavily armed and armoured, the Cyclops is still incredibly manoeuvrable and fast. Take note of the fake cockpit on the underside and stripes designed to confuse enemy pilots and ground gunners.

    Could you make a suspension design that instead of compression it pulls the springs?
