Lu-74B Bison

220 aguy  6.9 years ago

The Lu-74B Bison is a tilt rotor VTOL gunship aircraft made by Lukorp for use by the US Army, Navy, and Marines. Its design was heavily influenced by the Osprey. The B variant has more spread landing gear to help with stability on the ground, as this flaw was noticed during a review of its systems by an independent contractor. The Bison comes equipped with a wide range of anti ground ordnance and can therefore clear a landing area and defend its soldiers after drop. The Bison excels at combat landings, and even comes with a rear mounted Vulcan machine gun to cover the cargo door. Controls: VTOL for engine position. AG1 is for rear propeller (for vertical flight mode, please deactivate when under conventional flight mode) AG 3 drops rocket pods. I made this a while ago and forgot what the other controls are, If you find any I forgot please let me know.
