Project Arges

3,030 geek1love  2.4 years ago

The Arges X is a futuristic ground attack drone with a powerful laser cannon capable of melting tanks instantaneously. Designed for air superiority and long loiter times, the Arges carries ten air-to-ground missiles or can lighten its load by dropping fuel and ordnance to dogfight using eight low lock time air-to-air missiles. Powered by two massive jet engines and controlled by tailerons, the Arges is easy to fly, capable of speeds in excess of Mach 2, and short landings while using its air brake and drogue chute. All weapons are hidden in automated bays that eliminate the distraction of having to activate them (and remember what button to push) while you're in the middle of combat. Bring the thunder!

10x Infernos
6x Interceptors
2x Guardians
1x laser cannon
Countermeasures

  • Requires Laser Designator mod by WNP78.

Tip: Press 8 to close weapon bays while hunting for your next target. This way you won't inadvertently aggravate another plane as this disables the guidance system. Press 8 again when you're ready to lock a target. If your timing is right, they won't get a chance to use countermeasures.

Have fun!
