BH-MTH Superheavy Bomber

2,407 TurtlePants  1.4 years ago

The BH-MTH superheavy bomber was an already-archaic bomber design used by the Wright Republic Air Force during the Three Years’ War.


Backstory:

First produced in 2374 G.T. by Tyro Aeroplane Company, the BH-MTH was the heaviest aircraft of its time. It served well in the Galwam Wars of 2376 G.T. where its massive payload capabilities spread over three bomb bays proved to be able to pummel opposing defenses into submission. By the time of the Three Years’ War in 2398 G.T., the bombers were still proving their worth despite being two decades old. They were literal fortresses with a max of six defensive guns and were heavily armored. Although they had a very low top speed of only 140 mph, having entire sides of the aircraft sheared off still allowed it to keep flying and therefore earned a reputation from Krakabloan pilots as being nearly impossible to shoot down. This particular aircraft bears HY-23 squadron nighttime markings and therefore does not include the W.R.A.F. insignia.


Details:

  • Low stall speed of 63 mph
  • Extremely redundant and can fly without entire sides of the plane
  • Detailed engineer’s position
  • Three defensive turrets
  • High critical component health
  • Three bomb bays
  • Massive, near full-span flaps.
  • Impressive low speed capabilities.

Tips:

Use the VTOL slider for flaps, AG1 for the bomb bays, and look inputs for the turrets. Landing gear deactivates wheel steering. Upvotes are appreciated, and good luck out there!
