It could probably hold a MINI-nuke though! @SJElizalde
@InternationalAircraftCompany Thanks! The lower part of the fuselage is a "bomb fairing" to see if it will take a nuke for a spin (would surely not fit a bay that size)
Flight- 10/10- Excellent
Detail-7/10- I like the thing where you put the bombs. Is it a bomb bay?
Bomb Load- 10/10- The amount of bombs fits the plane's size very nicely.
Landing/Takeoff- 7/10
-Bonus-
Instructions/Backstory- 6/10- No backstory, detailed instructions.
-Total-

Very good!
