Hawker Diana (25 Part Build Challenge)

Auto Credit Based on WinsWings's Fighter Under 25 parts, challenge (CLOSED)

My entry for the 25 Part Build Challenge.

This is the Hawker Diana, a light, Point Defence fighter armed with two active homing missiles.

CONTROLS
VTOL - FLAPS
VTOL + AG1 - AIRBRAKE
AG2 - CANOPY

The Hawker Diana was initially designed as an advanced weapons trainer, as its docile flight characteristics were ideally suited to newly qualified pilots transitioning to single seat fighters.

The Diana's agility and speed quickly led to it being adopted as a fighter aircraft in its own right, and the ease with which the weapons loadout could be adapted for various roles, including CAS.

All that remains to be said is...
Enjoy!
