AWI J3-FB 'Caster'

30 simmer22  3.4 years ago

Swing-wing fighter bomber with afterburner that served as a test bed for me to jam a bunch of Funky Trees code onto. Features automatic nose wheel steering gain on ground, automatic wing sweep angle, automatic leading edge flaps, automatic yaw spoilers, and automatic engine nozzle. Obvious heavy inspiration from the MiG-23/27.

Automatic Wing Sweep: As well as IAS, deploys up to 65% for each G past 4 G's in a turn. Adds 80% of deployment when gear are deployed.

Automatic Leading Edge Flaps: Deploys to match the angle of attack up to a maximum of 30 degrees departure.

Automatic Yaw Spoilers: Deploys to stabilize the yaw axis of the aircraft past 2 degrees slip angle.

Armament:
4x AWR-1a Long Range Infrared missiles
2x Boom 250 freefall bombs
1x 37mm autocannon with 100 rounds of ammunition
2x Countermeasure dispensers with 32 flares each for a total of 64 flares

Action Groups:
AG1 - Navigation Lights
AG2 - Dump Missiles

    @pitia Funky Trees code running on rotators that look at how the aircraft is currently flying. I really recommend giving it a try! None of the code on the plane is too crazy to write.
