27.8k TheFlightGuySP  2.5 years ago

Overview: A120 is part of the A100 family of supersonic, multi-role, single-engine fighter aircraft. It currently has two other variants: A100 (unarmed prototype), and A110 (Air-To-Air version).

Maximum Airspeed (TAS): 1350mph, 2173kph, 1173knots.
Takeoff Airspeed (IAS): 165mph, 266kph, 143knots.
Maximum Altitude: 70,000ft, 21,336m.
Cruising Altitude: 50,000ft-60,000ft, 15,240m-18,288m.
Controls: Activate1: Canards. Activate2: Drag Chute. Activate3: Weapon Systems.
Weapons: 2x Inferno Missiles, 2x Boom 50, 2x Miniguns.

Notes: I recommend using 25-50% power on takeoff, and to deactivate the canards after 225mph for stability. Turn on the canards again for landing.
