The last Matador, it's was used to further HSW's research into western Energy Maneuverability Theory, supercruise, fly by wire controls and also the application of gimbal nozzels to achieve desired post stall maneuvering on an airframe poorly designed for the task. We believe this to be the most successful weapons program in our history as well as one of the most potent attack aircraft in world history. The Matador uses Xperimental Dual-Stage Afterburning Turbofans(XDAT). Post Stall Manuvering/Normal operation mode up to 800mph at 2000ft. Stage one Afterburner is optimal for supercruise performance and maintaining supersonic flight in sustained turns, up to 1100mph at 14,000ft. Stage 2 is a full afterburner which offers a ludicrous turn rate and a maximum speed for 1700mph up to 30,000ft. Comment "Blah2Blah" and get two upvotes. Best for post stall maneuvers between 200-340mph. Can pull cobras, super cobra, Herbst turn, flat spin, split s, cartwheels AG1:Afterburner Stage 2 AG2: Afterburner Stage 1( Supercruise) AG3: Canards (500mph+ only) and nose 30mm GAU cannon AG4: Xperimental Fly By wire (must be activated at the right time) AG5: Nose Mounted Lasers AG6: Nozzle Gimbal (should be on at all times) Please enjoy and give me feedback on it's post stall performance. POST STALL BEST BETWEEN 40-70% THROTTLE

@oDDDynamics Awesome! Can't wait until the video is out
@ColonelStriker Thank you!
You need more upvotes!
@FuryionAircraft Double thanks. The next design should get HSW over 1000 points
@FuryionAircraft @oDDDynamics @accipitrisEnterprises Thanks guys
@HSAeroWerkes1 Tested, and performs MUCH better than the MK-1. I still do not understand how you are not silver yet.
@HSAeroWerkes1 Absolutely gorgeous, have yet to test out performance. This is one pretty bird. However, the 1.5 update makes your lasers no more than rapid fire bullet sprayers.
@HSAeroWerkes1 np
@KnightOfAraluen Thanks dude
This is a beautiful aircraft, and I might download it if I find the time.
Blah2Blah
@Ephwurd thankss
32 downloads, and not one person read the description and got their free upvotes lol
Sure!
And we regularly take the Pummeler up against industrialized forces. And it did very well. @HSAeroWerkes1
@Pilotmario The Pummeler was state of the art in it's day. And while it does has a role in the theatre of asymmetrical warfare, total war against against another industrialized power would put the Pummeler at a major disadvantage. Could you give me some feedback on the Matador's post stall handling?
@TrainDude @Viper28 @Goboygo1 @Pilotmario Thank you!
Nice story, but I believe the Pummeler is the best attack aircraft in the world.
Born a fighter, it served much of its career as an attacker. Simple, powerful, precise, and durable, the Pummeler could absorb a tremendous amount of punishment, and can dish out more. It is no wonder that the Pummeler is so well-regarded by the ground troops which it supports.
Operating on astute bases in harsh climates, the Pummeler was the right hand of the Paternian Air Force, even when fighter jets with stealth tech appeared on the battlefield.
