Northrop YA-9
and here the plane that finishes recently, maybe it is not so exact to the original model but it goes,
if you find an error please let me know, but don't kill me with complex things hahaha
also try to be careful with acceleration
enjoy it!
I did my best not to not have as many pieces, so some details have been omitted, like us air force letters...
The Northrop YA-9 was a prototype attack aircraft developed for the United States Air Force A-X program. The YA-9 was passed over in preference for the Fairchild Republic YA-10 that entered production as the A-10 Thunderbolt II.

Number built 2
design
The A-9 was a shoulder-wing monoplane of all-riveted aluminum alloy construction, with honeycomb structures and chemically milled skins. The required twin turbofans were fitted in nacelles under the aircraft's wing roots.[a] Northrop selected the 7,200 pounds-force (32 kN) Lycoming YF102 engine for the YA-9 rather than the more powerful (9,280 pounds-force (41.3 kN)) General Electric TF34 used by the A-10, although either engine could be accommodated. The F-102 engine was a new design, based on the T55 turboshaft that powered the CH-47 helicopter, which was selected in order to minimize costs.[5][8] The aircraft had a large cruciform stabilizer in order to improve directional stability for low-level flight. Split ailerons were fitted that could be used as airbrakes. When these airbrakes were operated asymmetrically in conjunction with the aircraft's rudder, sideways control forces could be applied (and the aircraft moved sideways) without yawing or banking, easing weapon aiming.

Can someone make a VR version
Brother from B-57 Canberra
A forgotten attack aircraft.
@Lorileni thanks buddy!
Nice!
@P0TET0Z thank you!
Thanks for the spotlight guys!@USSR
@Diloph
Cool!
@Brields95 oh,sorry, I have not take that into account xd
The front landing gear was offset 1 foot to the left to make room for the GAU-8.
@nadvgia XD thanks men
That front landing gear is already scary in the blueprints XD well done my dude!
@Brields95 yes no problem
I was able to find a schematic showing the location of the gun. I'll make a successor as well if you'd like.
@Brields95 thanks for the spotlight!
@Flappydappy 👌
@Flappydappy of course man!
