JAI-M03A Torpedo Bomber is a heavily armed torpedo bomber. It's armament consists of 4 nose mounted .50 M2 machineguns and 7 torpedoes carried in pylons. It is painted in blue and gray tones to blend with sea and sky.
It is my first creation with non-functional parts (aka decorations) and purpose built flaps (VTOL).

@RAAF Why not? It was made for WW2 Torpedo Bomber mission. It flies like brick and torpedoes are hard to hit with but 4 .50 machine guns pack a lot of punch.
@alexchub1 thanks!
