This aircraft was originally designed as a cheap and cheerful jet trainer aircraft, although after discovering its better than average agility, the design was overhauled and turned into an attack aircraft.
Again, this was developed before the Raven engines were finished, so they were not implemented on this design, and neither were the Falcon guns. However, instead of Falcons, this aircraft sports 10 wing guns which are accompanied by 4 Rocket Pods, 6 Boom 25s and 6 Infernos.
However, it's worth remembering that this is a simple aircraft and thus has its drawbacks. The most notable is the lack of air brakes, meaning that landing the aircraft requires slightly more skill and the lack of Falcon guns means this aircraft can do little to no damage when utilising guns alone. Although, the aircraft can use it's high speed (for its class of aircraft) and manoeuvrability to its advantage to throw off enemy aircraft and projectiles.
Next up may or may not be a Squirrel Industries top secret aircraft... You didn't see anything here... Happy flying!

@TheFlyingSqurriel As you do XD
@Squirrel No, I just flew into a tree and somehow found SimplePlanes
@TheFlyingSqurriel "Joined 28 minutes ago". You certainly found me in record time. Wondering if this is an inside job to try and dethrone me from the SimplePlanes website XD
I have found my brother...
@PolandballDoge it's not uploaded yet. I have a backlog of about 10 aircraft which I need to upload at some point.
@PolandballDoge I made an ES-50 which houses extra weapons, and it does a fantastic job of killing them off. It has Falcon guns on it, so when you fire at the ships, they spin out of control, so they can't get a lock on you.
@PolandballDoge I've used this for attacking sea targets. It does a pretty good job!
@Squirrel Thanks
@Huhama Yeah, sure. Go for it. As long as it complies with the site rules, I've got no problem with it!
@Squirrel
May i make a ES-45-1B (Attack Aircraft)?
I will give you credit
Also i love attacking ships with this
Nice job
