My first Aircraft with custom landing gear

The Fokker/Republic D.24 was a supersonic variable-sweep wing concept aircraft designed from 1962 to 1968 by the Fokker-Republic Alliance, a coalition between Fokker and Republic Aviation. The project was based out of Schiphol, Netherlands, and led by Alexander Wadkowski of Republic Aviation.
The D.24 was designed to be capable of vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) and was designed in accordance with NATO Basic Military Requirement 3 and competed in NATO's BMR-3 military project bidding. Only a scale model was built and is now located at the Luchtvaartmuseum Aviodrome in Lelystad, Netherlands.

Notes

  • Because this is a strike fighter, feel free to alter the number of missiles and bombs to your liking(within to number of pylons of course).
  • Due to how difficult is was the get the plane to have acceptable maneuverable, do not use more two Boom 50s as that could make it unstable
  • uses standard controls.
  • Deactivate AG8 and VTOL up for forward flight.
  • Activate AG1 to enabled afterburner and retracting of wings, which you VTOL up to do.
  • Activate AG2 to extend fuel probe.
  • Do Not have AG8 and AG1 activated at the same time

    Looks very interesting, I didn't know about this aircraft concept.
    On a different note, I am just a little jealous of how you can churn out aircraft so quickly while also looking good.
