Important Note - only use on High Physics, using on low physics results in glitches with the landing gear

The Aeronaut GAM-501 was designed to be a competitor to the A-164 Wipeout which, at the time, was widely used by militaries all around the world. The Aeronaut sported a much higher top speed, a vaster array of guided missiles and rockets, and was armed with Quad 35mm GAUSS cannons capable of piercing even the strongest armour. Introduced in 2031, The GAM-501 was primarily a ground attack aircraft and excelled in this role, outperforming virtually all other hostile military aircraft with its advanced systems which included a 180° lock-on system and a solar-assisted propane fuel equivalent that could keep it in the air much longer than with conventional fuel.

    What an unusual design. I especially like the nose section and the impressive attention to detail. Very clean and convincing.

    Fair enough and thanks! The A-164 has superior manoeuvrability, but the GAM-501 is faster and is heavily armoured; she’s able to soak up a lot of damage! The A-164 and GAM-501 are both very different attack aircraft, but they are both very effective! @Blue0Bull

    WOAH! This is amazing. One of the most realistic future aircraft I've seen on SP.
