Frashetta F-23

Auto Credit Based on FlyingThings's (CLOSED)No control Surface Challenge

The Frashetta F-23 is a fast fighter from the future, forged in the fires of fear, far from Finland.
As this is completely alien technology utilizing no control surfaces whatsoever, it flies a little differently than normal, so read carefully.
Pitch cause the nose to go up and down, Yaw makes you roll slowly, while roll causes you to roll quickly.
AG1 is Afterburner for going even faster!
Firing the guns still causes the guns to fire and brakes still slow you down.

I would have added missiles but the Frashetta flies quite fast and they had a tendency of getting lost when diving underwater, which happens if you try to land on water faster than 500-600 mph. So I just decided to forgo the explosives altogether.
Take-off from water is challenging but completely do-able.
