Breguet Atlantic

53.2k Tang0five  7.2 years ago

I know what your thinking, Tang0five has gone native.... But no, there's a good old British twist to this aircraft. French aircraft..... Rolls Royce Tyne under the bonnet so happy days! The Breguet Atlantic is a long range maritime patrol aircraft introduced in 1965 and operated by a number of NATO countries including the German Navy version seen here. An upgraded version was proposed to the RAF but we decided to go with the Nimrod MRA4 instead, which we subsequently cancelled mid build..... VTOL down to open the weapons bay and there's an assortment of bits and pieces you can throw around the place. 1,2&3 release sonar buoys, there's a couple of ATG missiles and torpedoes if you feel like venting some fury. Just remember to open the weapon bay doors first! 4 activates the lights. There's also counter measures to assist evading that pesky ground fire from the flotilla. Tally ho chaps!
