USFAF B-62
Alot of our victories go to the B-62, if it weren't for it then I wouldn't be here right now
-Commander Peter Cunnings, 78 division
It's here! It's finally here! The long awaited
USFAF B-62 is finally here! I promised it was going to be good and I sure hope I delivered. This has been one of my favourite planes to build ever also.
Huge thanks to all the people who helped with the XML modding, and for all the people who have been with the development of this aircraft!

---Description---
The USFAf B-62 is a heavy strike bomber capable of hitting targets from very high altitude or in orbit around a planet. Developed in 2166 to 2167, it was originally designed as a space craft, the B-62 also comes equipped with a hyper drive allowing it to speed out of dangerous situations. It has also served in 80% of all combat missions during the war of 2167 and has a mission victory rating of 95%.
Originally reverse engineered from a captured EF B-62 (USFAF designation, real designation unknown), the USFAF version has some significant upgrades from its Epochxian counterpart. These include a better and more advance minigun, a rear laser gun turret in the back, and a hyperdrive. It also has more advance computers built into the aircraft.
The B-62 is crewed by 3 people, 2 humans for either pilot and bomber/front gunner, and an AI for the turret or any of the human roles. This integration with 2 human and an ai allows for maximum efficiency in the aircraft.
"When we say it overhead we thought it was ours, until we say the lights, the blue lights, and the explosions coming towards us."

"It feels odd that we are using the enemies tech, but it's so damn good that if we didn't then they probably would have beaten us by now"

Powerful look means that this craft has a strong, bulky looking frame. Bulky in a good way. It makes it look strong, not awkward.

Lol, thanks! The awesomeness lags my phone too

I may try long cockpits, it may look cool on this thing, also, what do you mean powerful look?
Quite nice. I like the powerful look to it. Maybe a longer cockpit would give it a different (and possibly better) look. However, I think I just have some kind of obsession with long, thin cockpits. So uh, in summary I guess I have no suggestions. Very good build.
@Spefyjerbf
Thanks for the upvote! I took some inspiration from your planes to make this, what do you say?

Lol it's okay. I don't mind as long as it is corrected at some point, @Supercraft888
@KDS
Thanks!
No I remember, but there's like 10 people and I can't remember them all and if I leave out one they'll probably get angry at me
(You forgot I fixed the LG for you....)
Awesome build!
