Oblivion Jump Jet mk. 2

120 zenbubbha  7.2 years ago

Inspired by the bubble jet in the Oblivion movie. VTOL capable with twin rotating turbofans and synchronized folding landing gear. Drop tanks (ag5 to release) and heavy armament.

For take off, increase engines to ~48% with a little forward stick until altitude is achieved, then gradually increase throttle while swiveling the engines to full forward vector. With practice, you can vertically fly up to a few hundred feet, then gun the engines and forward vector to full to perform a swooping start, reaching positive wing lift just above the run way.
