Dead Ringer

If you like it, you should put a ring on it. Dead Ringer features a singular circular wing wrapped tightly around the fuselage. Its design is tight and compact, and features a fearsome forward armament of four miniguns, four machineguns, and four guardian missiles. To take off, push throttle to full, then when you reach 200 MPH, pull up while triggering AG1 to drop your "training wheels" while you shoot into the sky. In the air, Dead Ringer isn't the most stable plane, but you should be able to fly it reliably enough. Three things to watch out for: It doesn't turn super tight, so avoid making canyon runs at full throttle or diving at the ground. Two: It doesn't have much in the way for fuel, so you won't have much time in the air. Three: Firing all four of your missiles shifts the center of mass too far back, leaving you pretty unstable, so make sure the first hit is a kill. If you want to land, good luck! I've tried many times, and it's probably impossible. However, I made the main body buoyant, so you should be able to set it gently in the water without losing it.
