This plane was designed for mobile users. Well, at least I tried too. I don't know if everyone's phone can handle it, but I think it's ok. The Solar Flare was made to be a light trainer/ fighter bomber, capable of carrier operations. It may be overly armed, but it's not too much for the aircraft to handle. The jet is equipped with thrust vectoring for a better turn rate, and two missile pods for multipurpose missions. The missiles on the belly are handcrafted for bigger stronger targets in the air. Some good advice is to ditch both the belly missiles and wing missiles for a safer landing. This plane is slightly sensitive to harder landings, which ironic for it being a carrier jet. My method for landing this plane is to have a flatter/shallower glideslope. This is trickier when landing on the USS Beast. Your choice of weapons are an effective gun for close range air-to-air combat, 6 Infernos, 2 Oppresser missiles, 2 torpedoes, 2 bombs, and 8 Interceptors. Controls : AG1 enhances maneuverability, AG2 is the tail hook, AG3, drops belly missiles, AG4 drops wing pods. Trim works normally and the weapon pods automatically open up. This was one of my smaller projects I am working on and I hope you enjoy.
