Burgania's latest seaplane fighter craft, this is one of the strangest planes out there. But while its a bull to handle, and with weird flying quarks, its speed and firepower are nothing to scoff at.
Armament- two 20mm cannons and two 13mm machine guns.

Nice to see another of your unique designs! This one took a little getting used to in flight. I pitched forward pretty hard and wound up in a death tumble which I managed to recover by shutting the engines down, using both roll and rudder to get out of it at only like 500 feet ... so I used the opportunity to experience a landing on the water. That was nice and smooth! Afterwards I figured out that the flaps partially deployed helped to stabilize the pitch controls. Lateral stability gave her a butt wobble but nothing critical. If anything it'd spread gunfire out over a wider area in a dogfight. I've been experimenting a lot in sandbox the past few weeks but haven't published anything new.
Lately I've been experimenting with some XML modding tools, trying to get some realistic looking wing textures and figuring out interior details so I can make full use of the new clear parts.
On the other hand part of me wants to start building replicas, digital models, of WW2 birds. Some of the complex curves, shapes and greenhouse/beetle nose surfaces have me a little intimidated though. lol
Fun design.
This is a strange seaplane, but i love the unorthodox design
