F-111 Aardvark
The F-111 Aardvark was the first military plane to ever implement a swing wing, and is still one of the fastest planes to enter service. Similar to my F-106 design, this isn't any perfect replica, but all the parts and their functions are present. Has a 2 person cockpit, one Pilot (Camera 1, F5) and a gunner (Cockpit, F1). Full working joystick and throttle lever. In the pilot half, there are 3 indicators: G1=Green Light=Engines on, G2=Dark Blue=Taxi mode, and G6=Light blue(On control stick)=Swing wing(Swings back with X and forward with Z). With wings forward, stick to around ~35% throttle, for better balance and manueverability (Except during takeoff). Gunner seat has 3 indicators: G3=Red=Air-to-Air weapons. G4=Orange=Air-to-Ground weapons. G5=Yellow=Bomb bay+bomb. Slide VTOL down to open bomb bay doors.
