Trust me when I say, this was not the first plane that came up to mind when I was designing the cockpit. After a week filled with frustration, I settled on what you see before you.

The Scorpion is a light, single seat, twin-engine, ground attack aircraft. Designed to attack targets a hundred times larger than itself, or just normal surface targets, the Scorpion you see is armed with an internal, single 20mm cannon for self defense and CAS, 2 x AAM-109Cs for self defense and or intercepting enemy aircraft, 4 x rocket pods so it'll look like a standard attack aircraft, and 4 x AGM-134B "White Stripes".

The cockpit was a very nice experience to build, the throttle, control stick, pedals work. Even the trigger<<Can you hear me?>> works when you fire the gun.

How to fire the AGM-134s:

Just make sure you're properly aligned with your target or else the missile will go through the aircraft. If there is a case that you cannot align yourself and want to fire the missile, pitch up and make sure the nose is elevated allowing the missile to fly under the craft.

PS, now we all know that scorpions don't fly(do some of them?) and this Scorpion wants to reach the heavens, albeit slowly, so just put the TRIM slider up before flight to counteract it's tendency to pitch up.

Huge thanks to @Gestour for his pilot mod that I used to make the cockpit

Now if you fancy this aircraft and your Air Force, Coast Guard, Rebellion, or whatever needs an attacker, then please consider the Scorpion. That'll be all, and I hope you enjoy.
