AeroSport Python (WW1 Challenge)

5,610 AeroSportIndustries  1.7 years ago
Auto Credit Based on MitchellAviation's WWI Dogfight Challenge (Closed)

The AeroSport Python was considered revolutionary at the time of its debut in late 1916. It had a powerful armament for its time, and the wing design offered greater protection from the elements than it's contemperaries. It was also equipped with advanced gauges, and carried its own compass, something not particularly common at the time. The 300 produced became the mainstay of the Tri-Island Airforce during the war and saw limited service fending off bomber attacks on the Home Islands, and proved themselves quite succesful in the role. Top speed is 95 mph, stall speed is 55, and AG8 is Engine Ignition.

    This version has more realistic guns, the challenge ones are rather potent, to say the least.

    It wasn't able to take down Ares but it's a nice looking plane that flies well. Congratulations on third place.

    @Hiimakeplanes yeah it is a bit one the slower side of things. I forgot to adjust the engine power a bit to account for drag once I added cosmetic parts to it
