Black Shuck X-1 (OP Challenge)
The Missiles Shall Show No Mercy...
The Black Shuck X-1 is a redesigned Saker Falcon X-1. It keeps the Saker Falcon fuselage, but swaps the old wings for the Silver Bullet's wingset. Not much is known about this aircraft, being heavily shrouded in mystery. It uses experimental "Excalibur" missiles that pretty much are the most OP thing you'll ever see in this game. It's coated in a un-reflective black paint paint adding on top of the erieness of this bird. Enjoy!
The plane is named after the mysterious cryptid black dog that haunts the British Isles known as "Black Shuck".
This plane was originally built in celebration of Helilover's return. I planned on releasing this plane sometime this week, but I saw this OP challenge and thought "Why not I submit my most OP creation ever?" So here I am. lol

Thanks!
@Helicopterboy
By the way I recommend you make some small changes to your Gold Edition so it's not exactly the same as this fighter.
@TMach5
Wow. Well it's not really the jet, but it's the missiles. The design is certainly an improvement over my older Saker Falcon X-1 design, in terms of increased maneuverability and extended range, as well as increased speed. The missiles are just brutal. Your only chance of escaping one of these missiles is by dumping LOTS of flares, which all they do is just decrease the missile's accuracy, the missile typically remains locked. Basically these are the most OP missiles you'll ever see in SP. :)
Also thanks for the upvote!
I spent 2 hours last night trying to figure out how to defeat this Jet. It's an excellent design.
@Helicopterboy
Sure you can submit the gold one I made for you but check with the OP challenge rules. Some challenges don't allow successors of other planes.
@JohnnyBoythePilot XD no problemo
@Jetpackturtle
See what I mean? There OP. Thanks lol.
@JohnnyBoythePilot Oh my goodness...
I forgot to test the missiles...
Bumping up your rating now. Sorry!
@JohnnyBoythePilot Brawl. But missiles take lock-on time and precision, so modded guns really can help in a fight.
@Jetpackturtle
Fire the missiles and you'll quickly see what I mean. The missile's performance does the talking, not it's looks.
Is this a beauty pageant or a brawl?
Agility: 15/25. Pitch could use some work, but roll and stability are good.
Speed: 20/25. 1400 MPH is good by me!
OP weapons: 22/25. I'm sorry, but these weapons aren't overpowered, they seem like stock.
Detail: 20/25. I love the paint scheme and inlet detail.
Total: 77/100
Overall: A solid plane, but needs more agility.
