A-3 Jackal

6,364 Aano78  5 days ago
Auto Credit Based on AeroTactical's (Open) Turboprop attack challenge

Overview

The Jackal is a carrier-borne strike aircraft. It excells in the rapid deployment to a combat zone that is needed to cover operations such as amphibious landings. This is in part because of its pusher-puller propeller configuration, minimizing drag, and giving it its short takeoff distance. It has a full cockpit, bomb bay, and folding wings. It is able to take off very quickly.

Controls

AG1 for bomb bay
AG2 for wing folding
AG3 for lights
AG4 for arresting hook
AG5 for canopy
AG6 for jettison

To take off from the USS Tiny, fold the wings, increase throttle, and unfold the wings after you pass the bridge.
