(redux) Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II

7,171 Aeriast  7.2 years ago

A close air support/forward air controller aircraft with a beastly 30mm rotary cannon in the fuselage. This, while not a successor of my first A-10, is a redo of the plane.

Tips for flying:
When taking off or landing, it is highly recommended that you use flaps (VTOL down).

While it is possible to land very carefully with all your weapons attached, it is not recommended. This can lead to an explosion.

CONTROLS:
VTOL down - flaps
AG1 - navigation lights
AG2 - formation lights
