About
The final production variant of the Spartan attack jet, the KA-3C is named the Cobra because the intakes look like a Cobra's hood when ready to strike.
The final model of the Spartan is pretty much the same as the last models but is slightly more enhanced and upgraded, plus it is actually aircraft carrier capable, unlike the B. Currently the Cobra is replacing the A and B models on the frontlines in the Middle East, Korea, and the Pacific.

XD thanks! @jamesPLANESii
The skybox is afraid of it
@Strikefighter04 well we would love them... if we had a operational aircraft but as of recently we no longer have one
Thanks XD @Spikerya
Would The Croftin Democracy like some of these? @AircroftDesigin
Alas yet another manufacture rolling out a carrier capable plane and yet we still don't have one
@Strikefighter04 @MyMessage i can lol
Ikr! Thanks! @MyMessage
Too bad I can’t spotlight your builds anymore XD @Strikefighter04
Oh I see. Thanks for the info! I will use that! @F104Deathtrap
@Strikefighter04 3) In the old days, biplane fighters (and even early WW2 aircraft) had machineguns located in the cockpit so that the pilot could manage them himself. But these were small, hunting rifle sized bullets.
Modern aircraft cannons fire huge bullets, the size of an arm bone. Some rotary cannons have suprisingly light recoil for their size but it's still a cannon and the low-recoil ones are much larger and heavier than the lighter, recoil-driven ones that shake so bad they literally tear the plane apart.
There are jets that carry their cannons close to where you've put yours, but they're usually 3 or 4 feet further up the nose.
Thanks! @Bearclaw189
This is cool
Thanks for the input! @F104Deathtrap
Thanks! @TMach5
3 complaints:
1) False advertising. Plane in screen caps is visibly different from upload.
2) You ran the intake ducts through the cockpit, probably not very healthy for the pilot.
3)The unfortunate location of the rotary cannon means it's too short to properly accelerate its ammunition, blinds the pilot when fired and damages nearby cockpit instruments.
Love the Firepower!
Can someone can teach me how to post an aircraft with screenshot
