AC-131Q Kraken

150 jbowen  6.0 years ago

Most up-to-date type of the Kraken aircraft... Incorporates new wing design, giving it better performance and increased maneuverability at lower airspeeds and slightly higher MAX Indicated Airspeed. Has High Off-boresight flight station (Activated by VTOL control), allowing aircraft the ability to rotate cockpit to fire guided standoff weapons up to 180 degrees off normal boresight. Also features new aft-firing rockets (Button 4)... It is a cantankerous but delightful monster of a machine. Enjoy!
