Next generation Bomber. This bird carries 72 (!!!) bombs in its belly that fold out smoothly thanks to the clever bomb bay design. Open the bay by pulling back the VTOL lever and drop the bombs with groups 1, 2, 3. Have fun.

@Planefun Sure, you're very welcome. I always enjoy seeing others reinterpreting my constructions.
Great bomb storage design
@kostaspettos interesting, but that one is actually a coincidence. I really had no immediate inspiration for the design other than an actual owl which hit me once I had finished the nose.
I've uploaded an opened up version of the Night Owl in case anyone is interested in the bomb bay machinery.
@thomin Yeah, that bomb bay is a masterpiece!
@TheLatentImage @Wormforce @WalrusAircraft Thanks all. On my iPhone 6, it runs mostly well, though occasionally it has some patches where it slows down.
Balancing was much easier this time thanks to the lessons learned from the predecessor regarding how to build such a heavy plane. From the start I had a layout in mind that turned out to be working rather well. Once you drop all bombs it tends to tilt up a bit but that's the sort of compromise that is inevitable. But I'm really happy with the bomb bay which ended up working better than I could hope for. Lots of fine tuning went into that.
Oh my good god... Fly's supurb dispute this size! The sheer amount of bombs is incredible!
What a great bomber to annihilate any form of life on earth !
Woah, this thing is cool man. My phone barely runs it due to all of the detachers . Nice build buddy.
