Alright heres my 25k special, this is the plane that started it all about a year ago, The Spearfish was an experimental Dive-Bomber, Torpedo bomber that was meant to serve on the proposed Malta Class Aircraft Carrier, though it was meant for WWII the war ended before it could be built and the Malta class was cancelled after the war and becuase of this the Spearfish was cancelled, there were 7 ordered, 5 were built but 4 actually flew some experimental flights until they were scrapped in 1952 (activator 1 to ignite engine, activator 2 to use foward Mgs, activator 2 for turret trim for elevation, VTOL for traverse)

I've tried a way to create exhaust pops I'd like some feedback if it looks good or not
Excellent! Those late/post-war torpedo bombers are strangely fascinating. Old technology in a period where missiles were just about to supersede torpedoes.
