Auto Credit Based on Dimkal's Maritime Patrol Aircraft Challenge [CLOSED]
I would recommend using Trim to keep the plane level in flight. VTOL to open bomb bay doors. Ag.1 and Ag.2 will drop two bombs each.
Manufatured by Aegrir as a long range naval version of the 4.88 bomber and both using common parts with the 5.22 biplane fighter for ease of production.
The design was put forward in 1934 and this variant entered service with Naval squadron E in 1940. It was also the first aircraft produced by aegrir to have radar, capable of detecting ships up to 10 miles away.
It has a crew of three (Pilot, Technician and bombardier.)
An armament of two torpedoes and four bombs.
It was fairly fast for its time but not maneuverable and outdated in most ways by 1940 when it entered service.

@asteroidbook345 Thanks.
I was'nt sure if it had to be outside or if it could be inside the fuselage, And I forgot about it until i'd already typed in most of the description and did'nt want to have to write it again. :/
@poopatron71 Aircraft is within rules. Good luck!
@Treadmill103 Thanks! I did'nt think the wheel wells looked good. I could not make covers that worked properly, so it has none which I think might cause a lot of drag.
