Bristol Beaufighter
100% Historically EXACT replica of the Bristol Type 156 Beaufighter (Same Lenght, wingspan, height, load, fuel, engines...).
Read the instructions below!
The Bristol Beaufighter was one of the first multirole fighters, used widely by the British Royal Air Force, this plane prove a very good performace in the role of torpedo bomber and bomber escort, but it was also used for destroy airfields, bases, enemy positions, night fighter roles and home defense. Standardly armed with four 20mm cannons and a rear turret is a hard-to-fight target for every axis fighter and a dangerous treat for the axis bombers.
This one is loaded with the Bomber presets (one ventral 500lb bomb and two 250lb bombs under the wings) and painted with the 242 RAF squadron scheme which served in the North Africa theater. Enjoy this awesome plane!
Instructions:
Press 1 to activate rear turret, F5 to change view.
Press 2 for navigation lights.
Press 4 to launch the two 250lb bombs.
Press 5 to launch the ventral 500lbs bomb.
PS.: During the takeoff dont touch any button, it will do it at 120 mph automatically. This first version has some vertical stability issues, the best speed at low heights (under 5.000 ft) is aprox. 250mph (like the real one) and 70% thruster. At low speed (under 180mph) the plane automatically goes up, this is nice for landing, but keep it in mind when perform some risky manieuvres.

@Himynameiswalrus Yes, thats true, but if i put only 1 the plane blows up XD
Good, but there is only one machine gun on the turret
