The Curtiss A-25 Shrike (AKA the Curtiss SB2C Helldiver) was a dive bomber developed by the United States in 1940 to replace the Douglas SBD Dauntless. Unfortunately, due to performance issues and delays, by the time the A-25 was ready for service thoroughbred dive bombers were no longer needed. This particular upload has an armament of 2x 500 lb bombs and a torpedo in the bomb bay.
-VTOL DOWN to open the bomb bay.
-AG1 to aim the rear guns.
