A-35 Firestormer

799 NavalCG  2.7 years ago

(Fiction) Built and deployed in 1946 to combat the increasing German supertank production, the A-35 is a fast attack, highly maneuverable, American built attacker with 12 bombs, two 100 mm cannons, four 50 mm cannons, and a turret. At a speed of around 370 mph level flight, it can outpace most fighters of the Army Air Force. If in a squadron it can wipe an axis base off of the map. By itself it is a good reconnaissance craft and bomber interceptor. It can defend itself from new luftwaffe fighters and interceptors with high survivability.

Ok actually important stuff:

Yes the top speed and armament is real. The navigator seat has a real map of SimplePlanes (not too accurate, though). The plane has a setting I recommend for a good flight:

Trim=~48% back

Flap levels are controlled with the second lever (VTOL) and the levels are:

Takeoff flaps-50%
Landing flaps-100%
Combat flaps-25%

Everything else has tool tips and labels. Have a nice flight! :)

    @AndrewGarrison I’m still confused with turrets and I want to make sure it works and I want to get a developer’s approval
