One of my Warplanes - Carrier capable Uboat hunter.

INSTRUCTIONS - About the Depth Charges.
Since these charges are submerged, you can't use detachers or embedded guns to detonate them.
I've created a simple detonator that uses the same mechanism irl - pin drop.
They're complicated to arm, though. Use them against the carrier / escorts as remote - detonated mines.

Dropping - ACT 1, 2, 3, 4.

Priming - ACT 5, 6, 7, 8 on. VTOL UP.

Pin Detonator - VTOL neutral. Then ACT 5, 6, 7, 8.

    @Weaverfish the priming should be ag 1 2 3 4 so that way when you drop them they are already primed and ready to explode

    @BogdanX the swordfish's entire landing struts expand out if the aircraft is on the ground, then drop a little once the plane takes off. I just made all of the struts fixed, and focused on a landed look to the plane. You can see it here, top left.

    Yeah, I know the handling is skittish but that's the way these aircraft were developed. They'd stall if you pulled back far too hard in flight. The huge elevators were really only fully used during carrier landing. My design reflects that. Fly it delicately.

    @BogdanX thx, I'm limited by mobile only though. Can't touch the level of detail you go into. Have to focus on perfect dimensions/handling performance.
