Auto Credit Based on ZSRAer0naut1cs's Light Bomber Challenge.

This is a fictional aircraft I made, the background history is also fictional. This is a successor post, hence, the same cockpit and the bombs provided are used. Most of the parts are all my idea. Designed for the Air Force and the Navy, the B-75 is a new light bomber that is designed for carrier operations, so the US Navy can strike the enemy coasts while away from attack dangers. This bomber has an arresting hook so it can land on carriers. It uses a taildragger design similar to WW2 carrier based aircraft. This bomber is deisgned to be minimalistic yet powerful, and it also has high agility so it can easily evade the enemy. Lots of flight tests were conducted on the aircraft to verify it’s performance, and we are confident that it will be selected for the challenge. Note that this is just my imagination, and for story purposes only, and the plane would more fit into WW2-era than the present day.
