WWII Dive Bomber

33.0k SPairforce  3.7 years ago
Auto Credit Based on flame0w's Dive Bomber Challenge [CLOSED]

This is my entry into the WWII Dive Bomber challenge. I designed the aircraft to be fairly fast and maneuverable while also being able to serve its primary function as a dive bomber. The plane features an internal bomb bay with 1x1000lb bomb, along with 2x250lb bombs on the wings, 8xRockets, and a tail gunner position.

Controls:
Ag1-Open Bomb Bay.
Ag2-Activate gunner position and gyro.
Ag3-Activate Dive Brakes.
Ag4-Activate Tailhook.
Ag5-Fold Wings.
Deactivate Ag8-Turn off pitch, roll, and yaw inputs.
Trim-Flaps.

Builder's note: I apologize if some aspects of the design were rushed because I had to rush to submit this entry. I hope you still have a fun time flying this plane.
