Auto Credit Based on Blyatnov's H6K 'Mavis' [Remake]

Forgot the flags in the thumbnails again WHYYYY

Original build (By Blyatnov) here

Swarm version (multiple spawnable at once) here

  • The Defensive bombers series’ aim is to make killing AI bomber targets 10x more difficult, because fun is not allowed. All bombers have a semi realistic armament with semi realistic ranges, muzzle velocities, and firing arcs.
  • (Wiki)
    The Kawanishi H6K was an Imperial Japanese Navy flying boat produced by the Kawanishi Aircraft Company and used during World War II for maritime patrol duties. The Allied reporting name for the type was Mavis; the Navy designation was "Type 97 Large Flying Boat." Developed in the 1930s, it was used for reconnaissance, transport, bombing, naval warfare, and executive transport by the Imperial Japanese Navy. The national airline also used it as commercial airliner. The British mistakenly identified this aircraft as the Kawanishi Navy 97 Mavis.

Notes

  • This and the H8K are the first two crafts to feature an updated damage system, which seems to work a lot better than on previous bombers. For older bombers, instead of updating their FT (again), I'll be rolling out improved versions with other changes along with the gun damage after I get through a few other projects. Yey.
  • I also hope the few people that have been waiting for these for so long are happy now lol

Enjoy getting obliterated!
