A WWII-era Nazi heavy bomber, the Leviathan solves the classic dillema of space management for bombers - more guns or more bombs? The unique triple-fuselage design means the vehicle not only recieves two ovesized bomb bays, but also a special 'pod' for massive amounts of gunners equipped with Breda-SAFAT 13mm machine guns to defend itself. It truly is a Flying Fortress!
It uses the same BMW radial engines as the Focke-Wulf 190A planes, but due to development rush near the end of the war, work was incomplete and the outer two engines had to be fitted with fixed-pitch props. This made the two engines unsychronised with the rest, giving the Leviathan its' uniquely identifyable engine noise.
Armament consists of numerous 13mm (about .50cal) machine guns, a single 7.92mm machine gun on the tail end of the cockpit assembly, and four 500lb bombs and eight 250lbs bombs in bomb bays.

Yikes! The tailwheel is unsteerable! It's an easy fix to make, simple right-click it and click 'Yes' on the menu.
Happy bombing!
