Auto Credit Based on Falconhawk's AV-94A Strike Falcon
I have designed this aircraft to not need a GYRO, yet be able to perform the famed Cobra maneuver in battle without entering into uncontrolled flight.
The flight controls are very sensitive so you need to log some time in this bird to fly like a professional.
Just tap your pitch to get off the ground of you will smack your wings on the ground.
Don't underestimate the weapons load just because you can't see it from the image. There is plenty of air-air and air-ground arsenal to fight off your enemies.

Oh of course do it!
I always get hung up on ideas of improvement.
I actually got the idea of how it flies from a movie I didn't even finish watching the other day. Wish it flew exactly how it did in the movie but the physics wouldn't allow it. Plus it's a movie so I don't think it would work in real life anyway without being some UFO/Alien styled propulsion.
This one definitely looks pretty cool.
Mind if i go upgrading it?
