Gloster Twin Cyclone

37.9k Typhoon03  5.3 years ago

High speed, high versatility and high manoeuvrability, the Twin Cyclone may look like a pair of regular Cyclones stuck together but it is so much more. The jets have been removed and replaced with prop engines, yet the top speed is over 680 mph (it's a prop plane!) and it can carry loads far heavier than those the Cyclone could carry. Firepower has increased and this model can turn inside it's predecessor. It isn't the longest ranged aircraft in the world, but it is still better than many of my previous planes.
AG1 drops the minigun, AG2 drops the rocket pods, AG3 switches on the lights, AG4 starts the rear props and AG5 arms the minigun.
Tends to climb steeply on take off, so don't let that catch you out. Feel free to change the weapons fits about, although this model carries rockets I have tested it with a nuclear bomb.
