ARC-BX6 Sea Eagle
The Sea Eagle was a spiritual successor to the WW2 Sea Condor. A jet powered flying-boat designed in the early days of the Cold War. This jet bomber was built to operate from land or sea, forward deployable from a range of environments ensuring survivability. The concept was proposed to both the UK and US militaries however it was not adopted by either. Carrier aviation served the same purpose without the complexities of the flying-boat design.
OPERATION: Flies fairly well and is a balanced aircraft forgiving of most manoeuvres. Only use landing gear for operation on land, for water take off raise the gear and pull back on the pitch. Will get airborne at about 200mph. ACT 1: Drop bombs.
ACT 2: Launch air-to-air missiles.
ACT 3: Launch air-to-surface missiles
