Ground attack variant of the ML-347 Atlas Flying Boat. Basically, I took two main guns from a battleship I am working on, and mounted them on the Atlas. Not the most serious build I've ever made, but it's fun to fly in that sort of stupid-fun way that meme planes are. Can successfully take down the USS Beast and escorting destroyers, though I recommend you practice to set your trim on the Tiny first since that one doesn't shoot back.

Controls:
Standard flying controls.
VTOL down for flaps
AG1 enables water brakes and arms cannons.
AG2 toggles landing lights
AG3 activates second set of flares
AG8 toggles navigation/running lights

To take off from water: set flaps at half, give about 2/3 nose up trim, optional AG2 lights, and full throttle. She starts to plane out of the water at around 140-150mph, and should unstick in this configuration at 180mph. She accelerates quickly once in the air, so be ready to reset your trim to neutral by 190mph or the nose will go up very quickly. I usually retract the flaps around 210mph, and after that you'll want to give some nose down trim since the horizontal stabilizer is set to give a lot of downforce to improve low speed handling. After that, flight is pretty normal, but you'll want to keep adding downforce as your speed climbs.

To land, throttle down to 45% thrust, and lower flaps down full. If you are coming in fast, use the air brakes as well. Trim the nose up as you show down, and when you are not too far above the water, and at about 170 mph, give full nose up trim. In this configuration she should lose speed gradually and settle down on the water for a gentle landing. Once on the water, cut the engine, activate AG1, and hit the brakes to scrub off speed in the water. Using the AG2 lights is optional, but recommended. A rudder is provided to give better turning on the water, but frankly the Atlas has a turning circle as large as the Wright Islands when on the water.

Flying characteristics are a bit different from the original on account of having two naval guns strapped on top, so these instructions may need adjustment, but are roughly the same.

For anyone who has subscribed to me in the hopes that I would again be posting cool and interesting aircraft after my few months of hiatus, I am sorry that my first new aircraft is a meme version of an existing build...
