21.2k TemporaryReplacement  7 months ago
Auto Credit Based on AWACSgoddess's Lockheed XB-30

(Bug causing the thing to hit itself and die has been fixed, if it happens to you just redownload)

Original build here

Swarm version (multiple spawnable at once) here

  • The Defensive bombers series’ aim is to make killing AI bomber targets 10x more difficult, because fun is not allowed
  • This build is a suggestion by @StrikerUreka22 and originally made by @AWACSgoddess. (And ORIGINALLY made by Spark1645?) Make sure to go to the original post if you want to actually play with the bomber!
  • (wiki)
    The Lockheed XB-30 (company model L-249) was the design submitted by Lockheed after the request by the United States Army Air Forces for a very heavy bomber, the same request that led to the Boeing B-29 Superfortress, the Douglas XB-31 and Consolidated B-32 Dominator.

    @Alternation it’s a heavy bomber design that’s related to the B-29 program I believe.
