High speed bomber interceptor. It id powered by 4x 2000 hp radial engines, and it is capable of more than 800 kph in a dive. In terms of armament, it has 4x 30 mm Aden autocannons, and has mountings for 9 FFAR’s and 2 torpedoes.
Instructions are in game. This is something I threw together as a proof of concept to test some ideas for WW2 bomber interceptors

@Farewellntchii Looks like a Fighter, Multiplace (FM-) or an fast somber for me
@Farewellntchii thanks for the feedback, I appreciate the constructive criticism, it helps the quality of my builds!
Nice concept and build, I suggest the props should be war bird style, with no more than 4 blades (according to common props of the 1930-40s era) and agree that @Farewellntchii said
@Farewellntchii depends, I’ll probably put together a better one, I haven’t really done propeller aircraft before this one so I want more practice, I was putting it together as a proof of concept and to see if it fulfilled the rules of the challenge.
