SNB-28A 'Cutlass'

𝖂𝖊𝖑𝖈𝖔𝖒𝖊 𝖙𝖔 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝕮𝖚𝖙𝖑𝖆𝖘𝖘!

I am back with a new large aircraft. The cutlass is a sub/transonic medium sized jet bomber inspired by the British V-bombers. Now it must be addressed that This Aircraft is carrying nuclear weapons of which will cause lag to those with less capable devices! Ill go into more detail about those later. For now lets get on with it!

𝕮𝖔𝖓𝖙𝖗𝖔𝖑𝖘

AG-1: Open weapons bay / Arm contents
AG-2: Spoilers
AG-7: lights
VTOL: Flaps (only work under 250kts)
Trim:. . . .

Now this aircraft is no fighter. It has very sluggish handling for the most part other than its surprisingly responsive roll rate. It is recommended to use half flaps for takeoff. Rotation speed is around 150kts. Flaps will automatically retract at 250kts. This airplane will not be able to fly clean under 200 knots so it is recommended that flaps be put out under 200kts. Stall dirty is at about 130-140kts. The top speed is at the edge of supersonic at altitudes above 20,000 feet. The recommended operations ceiling is about 35-40,000 feet.

𝕬𝖗𝖒𝖆𝖒𝖊𝖓𝖙

This aircraft as stated before is designed primarily for the deliverance of nuclear weapons. Its stock loadout consists of two TNM-2 'Ballista' missiles. the Ballista missile is a long range cruise missile tipped with a 12 kiloton tactical nuclear warhead. This missile has operating procedure I will now discuss. First the weapons bay must be open to deploy the missiles. Once open, you will notice that there is no lock on circle. Don't worry that is intentional. These missile do not lock on to their designated target, rather they will seek out the target that you have selected at the time of firing. Both missiles are individuals in the weapons menu. They must be fired one at a time. Finally it is recommended to deploy these in level flight far away and above the intended target. If you are firing at a static target (one with no lock signature) then you can still fire the weapons unguided. These will also lock on to and fly towards targets with normally unlockable signatures such as the bridges in the bridge demolition mission. The instant kill radius on these weapons is about 0.7 miles. Finally these weapons may experience a few failures in their use. These include failure to launch after deployment, failure to detonate upon impact and premature detonation. other armaments include 12 Boom 50s, or 48 boom 10s.
EDIT: make sure to HOLD the fire button when launching, don’t just tap it, tapping it causes launch failures!

    Please enlighten me on how you built the missile tracking system. I believe it would be useful for me in making a newer AIR-2 Genie rocket.

    I am quite proud of my builds, I think they look decent.. But when I see a build of yours my brain just throws out "dang." with literally no means of explaining it... No over the topness to cover up mistakes, not underdetailed either.
    No super advanced methodery, but mastery of the fundamentals.

    You are truly a master, gg.

    I love your fictional jets series! Is the double ring emblem some kind of fictional air force?

    Thanks! @M7MD_E04, the blast radius is about 0.7 miles so you should be at least a mile away from the target prior to detonation :)

    Also @BogdanX, I understand your complaint with the missiles but in the end I decided that they were a cool novelty. If you do not like them or can’t run them I would recommend the variants with conventional bombs. :)
