From Wikipedia: The Textron AirLand Scorpion is a jet aircraft manufactured in the United States proposed for sale to perform light attack and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) duties. It is being developed by Textron AirLand, a joint venture between Textron and AirLand Enterprises. A prototype was secretly constructed by Cessna at their Wichita, Kansas facility between April 2012 and September 2013 and first flown on 12 December 2013. (end of the wikipedia part here because idk how to create paragraphs in this thing so yeah) Ever since I found out about this plane, I have always had some strange liking towards it, and felt it was underappreciated, so I decided to make this as a "tribute?" for this aircraft, also because there were not many other textron scorpions on here. This also serves as a learning project somewhat, as this is actually the first time I have used fuselage blocks for wings, and the first replica aircraft of my making. also a few instructions: ag3 to activate the FLIR pod, and use the trim lever to level out your attitude (you can tell on the vertical speed gauge when you are flying straight). so yeah, thank you for maybe reading this and downloading my aircraft. -Thedeathhatter
