The flagship aircraft of the J-Industries Military Research and Development division, and sold to 20 different countries, the "Cruiser" carries over 20,000lbs of ordnance and is powered by four Blasto BFE300 Generation I engines.

--ORDNANCE--
54x 250lb "Boom 25" Dumb bombs, 8x 500lb "Boom 50" Dumb bombs, and 4x "Cleaver" Cruise Missiles are the standard load, however it can be easily refitted due to the external mounts and large internal mounting area. It is expected to receive several upgrades over the coming years.
Now features countermeasures, however there are fewer than the B-501PS

--CONTROLS--
VTOL CENTRE to DOWN (Do not use VTOL UP) Controls Bomb Bay Doors
Activation Group 1 drops ALL external mount bombs at once. Useful for lagging computers, breaking audio for a few seconds, and destroying carriers.

--CRUISE MISSILE LAUNCH CONTROLS--
AG-2 ARMS the first missile.
AG-3 FIRES the ARMED missile and ARMS the next.
AG-4 FIRES the ARMED missile and ARMS the next,
etc. up to AG-6

NOTE: I recommend using the Activation Groups to launch the missiles, not the default button, where you will need to arm it and lock-on again, whereas using the Activation Groups means another is immediately armed and ready for launch so you will not lose the lock-on.
