Northen A.1 Spike Nuclear Bomber

I wanted to build a nuclear bomber. So I did. Isn’t technology marvelous? I have had this design sitting around for a while now and I felt like uploading again. This high performance bad mamajama ekes the most you can get out of standard 2000hp Radials. She comes bristling to the teeth with weaponry, featuring 2 offensive 20mm cannons with a very nice rate of fire (good for taking out individual ground targets), 2 defensive 50mm Flak cannons with proximity shells on a fixed mount to at the very least scare off any wannabe pursuer (if your blistering speed and obscene climb rate wasn’t already enough), and of course, the very definition of why xml was a bad idea, the chunky, the funky, Boom 5000 nuclear bomb. In the event you wish to use this goliath of a weapon and vaporise the entire population of one of the islands in an instant, I recommend climbing to an altitude of around 10,000 meters (or 30,000 feet if you hate good measurements) and travelling at a decent speed before dropping it unless you wish to be vaporised alongside everyone else. Happy flying!
