Auto Credit Based on Westin1's Dragon

After atmospheric re-entry, this space-plane dogfighter concept will engage in low-altitude, extreme combat egagements. Extremely powerful weapon systems and engines. I don't think there are any SimplePlanes that can shoot it down. It's fully automated, mostly designed for watching computer-controlled combat, although it's fun to fly by yourself. Extremely powerful and fast, but automatically decelerates to match and overcome enemy maneuvers. If you accidentally get too high, AG2 will deploy chutes to point you back to earth.
