Auto Credit Based on Jundroo's Tutorial Plane

The Lynch X1-18 is a stratigic bomber from the 80’s. Wright airforces ageing bombers were getting hard to mantain and fix in the year 1974 so they asked for a new bomber to be finished in 6 years. Lynch X jumped right to the project. They decided to build a swing wing aircraft that was sleek and stealthy. The design team came up with some wacky designs but then they saw Harve Billingtons design and decided to build it. On july 23rd, 1980 the new plane was released to the Wright airforce, they decided to buy 150 of them. Now the Wright airforce has 520 of them and doesn’t want to retire them until 2100. PS: (for the build the swing wings do work)
