119k DestinyAviation  7.1 years ago
Auto Credit Based on DbE's Interceptor Challenge(Cancelled)

Notes
-Obviously, it's for the "Interceptor Challenge"
-Good cockpit view
-Fun to fly

Controls
-No special controls (though I would recommend hitting "Enter" to put it into autopilot [mobile does not have this feature])

Developed in 1949 to succeed the CAC-15 Kangaroo (which never entered production), the CAC-16 Kangaroo II was a clear improvement. At 10,000 feet, it had a top speed of over 450 miles per hour (720 kilometers per hour). It had six 20mm machine guns and even featured an ejector seat. It entered service in late 1954 and was finally retired by the South Africans in 2001.

    @BroAeronautics Yeah, the Aussie's used the P-51D as their "inspiration" for the CAC-15 Kangaroo.

    You could always make the main wing out if multiple wings.
