F-60 "Crimson Butterfly" (Reupload)

Reuploaded to fix autoroll.

My best fighter jet so far!

RAE presents: the F-60!
It is our best fighter so far, and we incorporated many advancements over our previous fighters. First of all, it has a thrust vectoring engine that makes it supermaneuverable especially at low speeds. Second, it has a huge weapons bay which contains:
- 1x 30mm full-auto laser cannon
- 4x guardian missiles
- 8x interceptor missiles
Its 30mm laser gun has a good firerate, muzzle velocity, spread and powerful ammo. Last t but not the least, it has a stealthy design, so radar will have trouble tracking the F-60 (as if radar stuff exists in SP, lol).
Overall, it is a great dogfighter with good speed and excellent maneuverability.

Controls:
AG1- activate laser cannon
AG2- thrust vectoring
AG3- brake chute
AG4- nav lights
Trim- flaps/trim
VTOL- weapons bay
* VTOL up closes weapon bay

Features:
* custom paintjob
* weapons bay
* a retractable gun
* lots of missiles
* thrust vectoring engines
* low part count for mobile peasants

The missile pods are actually last minute additions in a desperate attempt to increase the amount of missiles this plane carries (it originally had 6). As for the retractable gun, I added it because I can.

If you liked it, don't hesitate to leave an upvote. I spent 4 days building this so I'd love it if ypu guys show some appreciation. Enjoy your flight!

PS: the weapon bay doors glitch a bit when maneuvering but it won't affect flight so don't worry.

    With the quality of your builds, you should be at LEAST gold, if not even Platinum.
