Viking - 1, Standing by. Good to be back...


[[Description]]

The LF-25 Manta Ray, a supersonic multirole fighter used by the Wright Air Force, this trainer was originally proposed as an attacker, but high command changed the role anyways.
While it may not be as fast as you think, it's agility makes up for it. The development was rushed so expect some gizmos malfunctioning in the cockpit.
