The GARD-10 is a heavy bomber specially designed to destroy enemy ships. It is notorious for its ordnance, fitted with 4 bomb pods for use against smaller targets and larger ships. Its main weapon is the bomb in its bay, most often referred to as ‘Big Boy’. It has ground capabilities, but it is most known for its use as a ship killer. But it also has revolutionary tech built in, as it is not just a jet or a prop, but both. The U.S wanted the best of both worlds, reverse engineering fallen enemy ships until they made their own jet. Arms: 1 Boom 50 ‘Big Boy’ ,4 SON-Bomb Clusters, 22 rockets, and 2 small wing guns. AGs: 1-4 to drop a SON cluster, and 5 to jettison fuel tanks. Have fun with this guys. I spent a lot of time working on this. Note- you can also drop the boom 25s (son cluster) seperately as just a bomb at a time, instead of 3 at once.
Normal controls, and VTOL up opens bomb bay
Btw this is the plane I’ve been talking about for the last week or so.
Notes: this is by no means a nimble plane. Don’t try it, you’ll stall and explode.
