That's right, no props.
Behold the world's last dive bomber- a jet! The A-14 Outcast dives in from above!
How many jet-powered dive bombers are actually on this site, though?
A bomber-fighter with some lore behind it, but we'll get to that in a bit. For now, let's talk about the obvious: dive bombing.
This aircraft sports only a single hardpoint, on which it carries a 1000 lbs bomb. The bomb in question is loaded with some sort of crazy material which makes the explosion massive, so always be at least 2000 feet above your target to ensure you're out of the blast zone.
As for diving, this plane has four airbrakes which extend from the wings, allowing the aircraft to slow down. When pulling out of a dive, I recommend you go full throttle. Also, random-ish note, this aircraft has pretty good energy retention around 500-700 mph.
The plane also has a bomb camera, so you can watch the moment of doom for your target.
As for that "little bit of lore" mentioned earlier, the A-14A is the last dive bomber in the Combined SimpleVerse, at least, for now. Although TUPL named it "Outcast" for being the only dive bomber in the air, it was generally unaccepted in every country aside from his own, with even the Russians not wanting one, adding a bit of emphasis to the A-14A's nickname.
Despite remaining in service, the A-14A has never seen combat. We don't know why, especially considering the M-War and TB-War were essentially peak moments for the A-14 to do some serious damage. Maybe one day, though, maybe one day...

That's all
Have fun with your new jet dive bomber!

@JSTQ
Decoration XD
I am actually reflecting on why this plane has over 300 components... such powerful deceleration
@SPsidearm
Because carrying more would make him as dangerous as the early A-40 models.
That and I didn't wanna put hardpoints on the wings; would interfere with the dive brakes.
okay but why ONE bobm.
@TheUltimatePlaneLover cool plane btw
@TheUltimatePlaneLover idk breh, also the lore goes back to the 1970s, check out the plane i made(tzarut).
@Hoawdie Hmmm
Sure why not
Only if LunarEclipse and SamuelJamesCastor approve though
Hello, We would like to buy 200 units for the price of 60.000.000.000$
(P.S. Snowstone Air force)
Regarding of this serious matter another rebellion has sparked around the island and we wanted to suppress the Rebellion as soon as possible..
guns are a bit much and the engine looks goofy but overall its pretty cool
@ollielebanania Thanks :D
You're getting better
@TheUltimatePlaneLover OH, well in that case yay
@Karroc9522
*No I mean to the first one, you can make it a PEA if you want
@TheUltimatePlaneLover I'll take it as a win considering you didn't say it was wrong
@Karroc9522 Hmmm sure
@theDarkclone139 naa image 3-4 is a Japanese kamikaze with 4 200lb bombs strapped to it
@TheUltimatePlaneLover God damn it. What if I make a peace and donate it? Will ya call it a pea then? Hmm?
@Karroc9522 Someday, PEAhaps
image 3-4 be like stuka siren BONK
@TheUltimatePlaneLover make it a pea plz
IT SO CUUTEEEE
@Rjenteissussy It probably would've been a PEA if it weren't for those high-detail airbrakes ;-; (yes they're supposed to be rectangular, they were inspired by the dive flaps of the A-36)
@Christiant2 Sure, why not?
It would defeat the purpose to make an OP jet dive bomber and then say "y'know what let's retire it before it gets to see war"
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 No worries mate :D
The dive flaps extend from the wings upon using the brakes.
Expectation: 100parts
Realidad: 315parts
