Well, this is one of my more interesting planes. Introducing The Reaper, perhaps my fastest plane yet.

This heavily modified North American P-51 Mustang is loaded with 12 Browning 50 caliber Machine Guns, and is capable of speeds exceeding 690 MPH.

In the right conditions, I've gotten it to break the sound barrier. Those conditions were: 100% power, props nearly feathered, and in a 90 degree dive.

Speaking of feathering props, the engine needs to be constantly managed so that it doesn't blow due to overspeed. As you go faster, you'll have to do VTOL up to keep going.

PS: if you have to ditch the engine, the plane manages relatively nicely as a glider. Just don't do anything crazy with it.

AG's:

VTOL: Prop Pitch (Up is forward, Down is reverse)
1: Emergency detachment of engine
