Auto Credit Based on Cabbage17's X-124
Had some trouble with the pictures
A fictional carrier capable early jet fighter.
It has a V tail and no vertical stabilizer, so yaw is controlled by air brakes on the wing tips.
A fighter proposed by a generic company in 1950 that only saw the completion of one prototype, which promptly crashed on its 3rd flight. Proposed armament included 4 cannons and up to eight unguided rockets. No contracts ever materialized and this the project was dropped.
Thanks to 11qazxc on the SimplePlanes Help Desk server for helping me with the brakes on the wings
Controls:
Ag1 - Arrestor hook
Ag2 - Fold wings
Ag8 - toggle wingtip yaw/brakes
VTOL - Flaps
Trim - Trim
Really it’s just a quick, simple build to try some things that ended up pretty good.

@AquiliusEpic I used the upload with screenshots mod. They just kinda uploaded, I've never had trouble with the number of screenshots uploading.
Pictures look good, how did you manage to get 3 in flight pictures in the upload? I used to use a mod for that but it seems to be broken... :/
Thanks @FeiWu!
