3 Year Anniversary Light Strike Mk. IV

45.5k Sgtk  5.6 years ago

This is a little different than what I usually post. Recently I celebrated my 3rd year here on the SimplePlanes forums. I thought it would be fun to do a redo of sorts for the first plane I ever uploaded:

The Light Strike Mk. IV

Here's what I had to say about it three years ago:

The Light Strike Mk. IV is a lightweight nightfighter designed to pack a quick strike against lightly armored enemy forces. Medium Range, Medium Speed, Packs a Heavy Punch for its size. First upload. Hope you enjoy!

She has gone under a few upgrades for the remake. They include:

-Remodeled Fuselage
-New Custom Control Surfaces
-New Custom Canopy
-New Landing Gear Layout
-New Engine Cowlings
-Added ATGM's
-Increased engine output
-Added Flaps

Here's a link to the original, if you'd like to see how far we've come:
