Aurelius A-500 Skorpion

5,492 DrakonDynamics  3.7 years ago

In order to ensure that Lykania is caught up with the rest of the world, primarily with Erusea, Osea, and Vauland, Aurelius Systems began a new project that will focus on creating aircraft entirely designed to be better than any other nation's. The A-500 was the first aircraft to be completed. It was named the Skorpion, after the project it was constructed in. While it isn't heavily armed, it is unbelievably stealthy, undetectable by almost no radar while flying at its dominant height of 15,000 feet (any lower and radar does have a chance at spotting it.) Armed with only 3 high-range, high-power air-to-air missiles, the A-500 can only engage in combat for a limited time, before the pilot must resort to skillfully take out the enemy with the plasma cannon at the front. The aircraft can carry a set of ammo boxes, but it will have to fly higher than 20,000 feet in order to reduce its radar signature. Despite the minor flaws throughout certain aspects of the aircrafrt, Aurelius and the Lykanian Government are sure the A-500 Skorpion will dominate the skies. Only time will tell.

The start of a new era.

Hey, I'm back with what I think is my greatest build of all time. Took me about 3 days to complete, and I while I'm not satisfied with some parts, I still love how this build came out. I accidentally left the passenger in the cockpit, but don't worry about downloading the mod. The passenger is completely useless and won't mess up the aircraft if it isn't there. Now, to the activation groups.

Ag. 1: This will activate everything. Controls, engines, cockpit lights. you name it. Engines are activated with throttle, obviously. Don't move the VTOL throttle. It won't do anything other than make the engines look like spiky haired rockstars.

Ag. 2: This will activate the afterburners. Unfortunately, due to the design of the engines. there's no after burning effect. You will still, however, accelerate from a top speed of 500 miles per hour to a new one of 781.

Ag. 3: This will activate the navigation lights. Turn these off if you are carrying out a stealth mission.

Ag. 4, 5, 6: These are all unused. Do with these as you please.

Ag. 7: This will activate your weapons. Trim up to bring out your missiles. There are no AG weapons on board, so make sure you select AA before hand.

P.S.: The plane may feel a little stiff upon takeoff, but once you've accelerated, the plane should fly smoothly.
