A-20 Warthog - Fictional A-10 successor

45 Ciruelo  4.4 years ago

A-10 was a great airplane but needs a face wash... so here it is! This airplane is quite easy to use... VTOL for primary wing elevators (down to pitch up and viceversa)

|| Ag1- to use auxiliar jet engine (it will help you if your main ones get destroyed during fight or if you want to be stealthy)
Ag-2 Nav lights (deactivate for approaching during night being almost invisible)
Ag-3 Emergency chute (activate if you lose control of the craft, they will bring you to the ground at a ~70km/h speed)
Ag-4 Fold wings (Carrier friendly airplane!)
Ag-5 ArrestingHook Ag-8 Primary jet engines||

The plane is NOT a dog fighter, it's made for air to ground combat so it loses it's pitch capabilities to ~5% at a altitude of 20000m and it max altitude is 57000m. If it happens to you, slow down and stall your plane, at 15000 m you'll recover control. Yo can use the chute for some help ;). Your only help against sky attackers is the interceptors located under the main fusselage, run from them!

In case you lose one of your wings (or even both) you'll be able to land easily because the way it's builded!

The main landing gear doesn't retract fully in order to let you land without extending them (make sure you get rid of the torpedo and the bombs first)

It's a little difficult to land it, here's a tip, have a little throttle (no more than 5%)during landing and dont use much yaw during braking, its better to use de parachute than the brakes in small airfields.
