Hawker P.V.5
The Hawker P.V.5.is a fictional British fighter built by Hawker Aircraft in the 1930s in competition for a British medium fighter contract. In the early-mid 1930s, the British Air Ministry issued a contract for a medium fighter to fight alongside the Gloster gladiator but be equipped with heavier armaments for larger air and ground targets. The aircraft met all the Air Ministry’s specifications, and the RAF put in an order for 150 aircraft. But the order was later canceled due to the aircraft's high production cost.
After the orders cancelation, only a few aircraft had been completed which were eventually delivered to RAF, but by the time of their deployment, they were vastly inferior to other aircraft of the day. This resulted in the remaining planes being called back either destroyed, auctioned off.

Flight notes:
(This plane is relatively easy to fly, rolling is somewhat slow, so be careful rolling at low altitudes and use pitch to maintain altitude. I’ve found that this plane is most fun to fly at low altitudes and attacking ground targets.)

You know, I think you put way too much detail in the engine, and I love that.
7/5 - plane flies perfectly and i managed to land on USS Beast first try with it (something that is hard for me....). Also, amazing attention to detail!
Amazing! Expert Noob gang @ElSandman
I love that wing
Nice!
