Easily my best aircraft, the Manta is a carrier-borne jet that can easily hold its own. It carries ait-to-air missiles, but one can always change this if so desired. Not to say that the jet isn't flawed; it is very tail heavy (not from weight, just from the airflow. This actually helps when landing as it tends to "float" down). It only has 2 miniguns, and only a few missiles, but when the missiles are spent, it turns tighter. One minor thing is that the tail will hit the deck of the USS Beast on the catapult. This should cause no issues. While there are some minor things here and there, it is still a very fun plane to fly. Lights are Group 1. Tail hook is Group 2.
