Takeoff: Easy.
Handling: Easy.
Landing: Easy.
Credits: None. Everything built from scratch by uploader.

Modifications over the previous version: (1) landing is easy; (2) bomb bay added; (3) fuselage largely remade; (4) cockpit remade; (5) parachute added; (6) countermeasures added.

Notes: Can achieve Mach 2.2+ speed. Landing and take-off require moderate speed. Engines uprated by 99%. Swing-wing has a range of ~20° through ~64° sweep, offering maximum lift at 20° sweep.

Swing-wing:
- VTOL UP: Minimum sweep.
- VTOL MID: Medium sweep.
- VTOL DOWN: Maximum sweep.

Bomb-bay:
- TRIM UP: Closed.
- TRIM MID: Open.
- TRIM DOWN: Open.

Bomb Release:
- Activation Groups: 1, 2, 3, & 4

Parachute:
- Activation Group: 7

Takeoff: Swing the wings to 20°, close the bomb bay, power up to about 60%, wait for the speed to reach ~270 mph, and pitch-up gently. The plane will gracefully take off and continue to climb.

Handling: Just like a large plane, it can do the basic activities, but not acrobatics. Acrobatics can rip the wings off.

Landing: This needs a moderately long straight approach towards the runway and the aircraft should be on less than 50% power. Parachute should be deployed upon touchdown, along with brakes and control surfaces for additional braking.

Bombing: 12 miniaturaized free fall bombs are placed in 4 rows, with 3 bombs in each row. Activation Groups 1, 2, 3, & 4, will release the bombs from the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, & 4th row respectively.

    @ACMECo1940, I have created one Boeing-737. It is under 200 parts. Please follow this link.

    Keep the part count low, for others it's like 600-700 parts but for me it's 200-250 parts. You don't want to have lots of detail, but you want to at least make it look nice. Don't make the controls TOO complicated. That's really all I can think of.@MKGamePlay
