Joystick advised... controls are a bit sensitive...

One of my first Jet designs in simpleplanes, wanted something like the Jet Arcade games of old.... tho it's a little overpowered ;)
I made it so you can multi drop/launch central and Cleaver pylons, but also get rid of unwanted weapons or weight.

  • Group 1 = Extra Flare/Chaff banks, activate once you run out of the first 16...
    -Group 2 = 3 Central rear pylons release
    -Group 3 = 3 Central forward pylons release
    -Group 4 = 2 inner Cleaver missiles
    -Group 5 = 2 outer cleaver missiles
    -Group 6 = Rocket pod pylons Release (Will drop the whole pod!!!)
    -Group 7 = Inferno pylons release (Will drop the whole pod!!!)
    -Group 8 = Lights
    -Pitch can be trimmed... a little
    -Brakes are Airbrakes as well

VTOL MB MP Friendly Version

the central 6 pylons can fit 6 torpedoes if you want..
feel free to use whatever you want out of this for your builds :)

    This is actually really good! The only issue I see with it is that it’s main landing gear is too far back. Place then just behind the CoM to make roll back on takeoff easier and reduce stress on landing.
