Interceptor Challenge BAE Whirlwind F.5
Ok, I had to delete this and re upload because it wasnt rule compliant. It is now (winkey smiley face).
This is my second entry to the Interceptor Challenge; an advancement of my BAE Whirlwind; the F mk.5.
This is a what if parallell development to the other Whirlwind variants I have built (trust me, I have many more not uploaded). Much like the real world Panavia Tornado fighter and attack models, the two share a common air frame, but with some key differences.
The controls are;
AG 1 + vtol to activate the landing flaps
AG 2 not used
AG 3 to toggle the lights
AG 4 to deploy the landing brake chute
AG 5, 6 & 7 to drop stores; first outer, then inner, then ventral.
AG 8 to toggle the variable geometry assembly. This is ON by default.
This is much more of a turn and burn fighter than my other entry.
Have fun.
