ESD-A3L
Introducing... the not-Tomcat!
The A3L is an obvious derivative of the Grumann F-14 Tomcat.
It took me a while to wrap my head around how it's put together, but I kind of made it.
The most recognizable features are the swing wing, the separate "drooping" nacelles and probably the landing gear.
This is my first upload to be made with 1.9 (I think) and it is the first to incorporate an advanced control law. Thus, you do not have to worry about the controls being too light at low speeds and too much at high speeds.
I tried to give it "realistic" handling while still making it fun to fly.
Controls:
AG1: Tailhook
AG2: Unfold wings (the elevators on the carrier don't work if you have any groups active)
AG3: Jettison fuel tank (this makes the plane much more maneuverable but unstable)
AG4: Jettison bombs
AG5: Jettison missiles
The cockpit includes two MFDs (non functional) and ten annunciators. The green ones represent the activation groups (you'll have to rememeber which does which), the orange one indicates your afterburner is active and the blue one indicates your landing gear is set to extend.
It can go transonic semi-comfortably at sea level and exceeds speeds of 1200 knots true when at high altitudes (30k+ feet).
Of course, it is fully carrier capable. Cheers!
