119k DestinyAviation  5.8 years ago

Notes
-Very fun to fly around (and shoot other planes down with)
-First time I used lights as engine exhaust flames
-I recommend setting Trim to halfway down (the first tick)

Controls
-Action Groups 1&2: Drop bombs
-VTOL Down: Deploy flaps (they actually do what they're supposed to do)
-Standard flight controls (Trim for Trim, Roll for Roll, etc.)

Designed in 1945 as the first standard fighter (or "Stundardflieger") aircraft of the Haupttzemburg Empire, the SZF-309 became one of the most iconic aircraft of its time. Due to the use of contra-rotating propellers, it was very fast and agile. It could carry either six 50kg bombs or a single 300L drop tank underneath the fuselage. It was armed with six 12.7mm machine guns and a single 20mm cannon mounted in the propeller hub. It sat a single pilot in a high-visibility cockpit. The SZF-309 would enter service in 1949 and serve with the Empire until it was finally retired in 1987. The aircraft shown here is apart of Merrtiempattrol Unnit FV.12 (Maritime Patrol Unit 12), designated as Red One.

    @Irobert55 haha, I meant to spell it "Stundardflieger." It's a fictional language that's similar to German but not exact.
