ES-38 (Airship)
The ES-38 is a gun ship that’s pretty much asking to me shot down. It’s slow, not very manoeuvrable and probably has the radar cross section of all the ‘Jelly’ planes out there put together… either that or the wall that Donald Trump has proposed.
“So what’s the flipping point of it?” I hear you cry.
Well, it’s not an ordinary aircraft. It’s also a battle ship. While the projectile weapons won’t be much use for ship to ship combat, the on-board rotating turrets will. These turrets consist of 2 Gatling guns per turret and with a bit of spacebar bashing can be quite a formidable weapon, especially while firing and rotating.
The ES-38 is also equipped with two forward facing guns and while fixed in place, are no doubt capable of splattering a few plane parts onto the nearest hillside. As a backup for when things get a little out of control, the ES-38 is equipped with 6 BVR missiles, in order to take out a number of targets before the onslaught of bullets.
Air targets aren’t your problem? Well, the ES-38 also comes equipped with some bridge busting unguided rockets and a few bombs too… Just in case you wanted to disable more than one airstrip.
Still not satisfied? Well… if you press F10… it turns into a firework.
