First there was the Shocanawe.

Truth be told, that one should have been called the 'OMG!!! WHERE'S THE POWER!!! Go up!! GO UP!!! ARGGHHH!!!!!!'...

Then there was the Shockanawesome, which decided that far too much power would be the best way to move forward.

Now we have the Shocanawe Naval Assault... for when you only have one aircraft and you need to destroy Godzilla, King Kong, Mechazilla, Kanye West, and still have enough fight left in you to sink several countries naval forces and trade punches with their air defence too.

It also has an on board kitchen come hog-roast, so you can do all of the above and eat a bacon sandwich (which let's face it... the bacon sandwich is really why you'd buy this bird...)

Some gamers just add loads of bombs and lack pazzaz and flare... I wanted something of a flying carpet that could level a city...

As I said, that original Shocanawe lacked a little manouverability.

And power.

It really lacked power.

What it made up for in a huge arsenal of weaponary it really lost out in the rest.

BUT!!! With jet augmentaion to aid the rear props, and forward mounted pivot jets up front, the much improved SHOCANAWE NAVAL ASSAULT really needs to be flown to be believed!!!

From 300mph to 0 in a flick of the elevator!!! OH NO! In a normal aircraft you wouldn't get the nose down again! You'd be pointed nose up, bum down and fall to an explosive death.... but the SHOCANAWE NAVAL ASSAULT deals with this with ease.

Pull the stick hard back, then central and you'll be nose up and dropping speed like a rockstar... Anything following you will overshoot... you'll be a dead stop over a target and drop your bombs... and then just as quickly you just throw the pitch stick forward and the 4 jets throw the nose back down. Add a roll and pull that stick back and you can out turn all but the best fighters. This is an aerial battleship that thinks it's a fighter.

This big old bird needs to flown to be believed!
