195 StarcrestUnited  yesterday

Lore:

The SCB-52 was a small fighter-bomber built by Starbound Dynamics in 1998 to test and improve airfoil geometry for future aircraft as well as test how much payload the single engine was powerful enough to deliver. The aircraft is equipped with several air-to-ground munitions, from long range missiles to unguided bombs. There was also three mounted cannons: Two 50mm cannons for dogfighting and one 100mm to attack fortified ground positions. Not many were ever produced and even less were ever sold to countries. About 91 were produced, with the top buyer being Vietnam with 9 of these aircraft. Three of the bombers were also bought for the use of other PMCs with another 5 being sold into the hands of collector billionaires.
