Export version of the M.A Red Arrow A5
M.A was tasked with providing an aircraft for the Vanadian Airforce, and the decision was to take one of the most recent and reliable models for export.
The Red Arrow, wich originated as a civilian aircraft, has proven through it's generations to be a very realiable and sturdy aircraft, while clearly not the fastest or lightest of the aircrafts, it can carry an impressive 6000lbs worth of bombs plus fuel tanks and defensive armament( 2 Interceptor missiles + 2 Inferno Air-to-ground missiles), also it proven during numerous missions to be a hard to kill aircraft. It can fly with a missing taileron or half a wing and still be able to land normally, you can even take-off without repairs if the emergency requires it.
This aircraft can be configured in numerous ways, wether it's ground attack(primary role), some CAS or even work as escort aircraft with an Air-to Air loadout.
