By 1943, the Third Reich was crumbling from the barrage of the Allied bombers. Desperate for pilots and interceptors, the Germans designed the 'Volksjäger' - built by civilians and flown by Hitler Youth teenagers. The design was small, fragile, awkwardly built around a single jet engine. An interceptor too fast for it's own good.


P I L O T S - N O T E S
CAM1 - Cockpit mode
VTOL - Flaps
ACT1- Arm R4M Salvo 1
ACT2 - Arm R4M Salvo 2

24 x R4M were designed to be fired at once, like a shotgun, at bombers.
These tiny rockets each packed enough punch to decimate a bomber, providing a hit lands.

    @Mostly fixed rockets, set them to 1-2 instead of 1-4 and changed some paint tones
