PROTOTYPE BUILD, FINAL VERSION CHECK SUCCESSOR

Experimental Light Close Air Support 2 incorporate the know-how from ELCAS-1 (now LCAS-1 "Carinth") and all previous prototypes of ELCAS-2 and pour it all in these single-engine aircraft. It enables a nimble, agile and stable CAS plane. After fixing the major flaw design in Mk.II Version, it transform this Mk.III Version to a whole new beast at a whole new level. Outfitted with a whole new engine, it can now reach up to 538 mph. It’s ability to carried by carrier is improved by the ability fold it wings to save space in cramped carrier hangar, folding wing didn’t only save space but also means pilots can change wings dihedral rate at virtually anytime. It’s now equipped with standard flight safety requirement such as navigation lights and landing lights. For even shorter landing distance, pilots get a brand new parachute. It’s very agile and impressed the development team to secretly install 2 smoke nozzles for aerobatic purpose. It’s now installed with basic self-defense mechanism, a counter-measure for missile, Flares (It’s now only for cosmetic purpose, let’s hope @Gestour (the mod maker) can make it work as a real flare). Basic weaponry of 2 wing guns is now installed for testing purpose. Future weapons compatibility are now assessed. A modern full glass cockpit is now installed (credit to @Sarpanitu). The experimental still stick to the name since the developer still unsure about the inconsistency of performances. But the process of choosing name have started.

Note:
-Activation Group:
