JAI-M10A Cartilage

1,204 Jukkelus  4.6 years ago

JAI-M10A Cartilage is a supersonic bomber designed to complete Mikoyanster's Total Naval War mod map.

1800 mph low-level speed, 18 miniaturized Cleaver missiles, and triple dispensers for both chaff and flares make this plane an excellent ship-killer.

Controls: The normal controls, trimmable pitch, and VTOL down for flaps. AG1 for navigation/anti-collision lights, AG2 for arrestor hook, and AG3 for ordnance jettison.

Instructions:
-On taking off, the plane is prone to overrotating. The recommended procedure is to apply full flaps and then full throttle and let the plane take off by itself.
-To land, use full flaps and extremely low power settings (in the range of 3%) to keep the approach speed reasonable. Use trim to counter the tendency to drop the nose. A row of airbrakes is installed to prevent runway overruns.
-The triple missile rails force to use zero ejection force for the missiles. Don't launch missiles while pulling Gs.

Design notes: This design heavily borrows from Rockwell B-1B "Bone" sans the swing wings. The engines are slightly rotated to counter the offset thrust.
