An ultra long-range multi-role strike aircraft, it is derived from the Pummeler Attack Mk 2, and appears as if two Pummelers were glued together. Many modifications were made, creating the Twin Pummeler. She can reach comparable speeds and carries much heavier 30mm Mk 9 guns. The type was first issued to the 11th Interceptor Squadron during the First Olympian War. There, it conducted long-range patrols against the Olympian Navy as well as protecting convoys. In addition, it was employed increasingly for ground strike. In all roles, its extreme range, twin engine design and two pilots gave it incredible flexibility. There, the "Two for One", as pilots often called it, proved incredibly successful, as the two pilot design enabled easier target acquisition. In fact, General Felicia Dawes stated "This aircraft is one of the best in class for ground strike. Our troops request it urgently." However, her request would not be filled; the Pummeler Attack proved itself adequate, and was cheaper to procure and operate as well as more maneuverable. This example was operated by an unknown attack wing. Operate as normal, except that (1) activates the port engine and (2) activates the starboard engine. This can be used to shut down one engine so as to save fuel on long missions, something commonly done.
