24N-Gannet - Navy jet fighter

The concept behind this plane is to lessen the difference between front and rear surfaces. The wings being less wide, the roll controls need to be amplified, which is done by adding roll control surfaces on both sets of wings. The pitch controls are also duplicated for good measure. The result is a very compact airplane, rather agile, but as a consequence with some minor stability issues.
Controls:
-AG1: Stabilizing gyroscope to recover from spins, help stabilize in horizontal flight or for landing if necessary
-AG2+VTOL: deploy machine gun. Extend and de-activate 2 to keep the gun out
-AG3: Activate machine gun
-AG7: Drop missiles
-AG8: Lights
