Bombsight
A new era in high-accuracy bombing! Use Bombsight's special ground-facing cockpit to spot targets on the ground, then use the modded pylons to fling bombs at the ground at hypersonic velocity. The bombs hit the ground in less than a second (at lower altitudes) very close to where the cockpit aims with minimal drift that scales with your altitude. With practice, you can snipe targets from as high as 10000 feet with proper leading. The plane itself is very fast for its size, and wants to pull up at full throttle, so be sure to trim up to 75% down-pitch before take off. Slide VTOL up to fold the main landing gear. AG1-5 also fires the bomb pylons, allowing you to fire the bombs in fast intervals, or all at once (not reccomended). Also comes armed with 2 forward-facing machineguns (primarily to add a crosshair to cockpit view).
