517-P "Chinstrap" (Whack AL Carrier Challenge)
This vehicle was created for the Whack Al Carrier challenge
The primary function of this vehicle is ground attack and carrier defense, in order to clear an area of enemy land defenses and then occupy said area with the carrier
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Features:
Folding adaptive wings
Ground attack rotary auto cannon (350 rounds HE)
Dual Light auto cannons (200 rounds I)
Passageway to cockpit from dock allowing for easy re-arming of both cannons
Bomb bays with 10 light bombs capable of 4 bombing runs
Flares & Chaff
Afterburner
fully retracting landing gear
Automatic carrier plane docking via laser beacon and hook
Altitude hold
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Instructions:
1. The vehicle will spawn with its landing gear up, this is so it can be spawned directly onto the carrier plane, lower them before takeoff
2. Increase throttle and enable the Engines (a throttle of 9 is a suitable runway taxi speed)
3. Press the "Deploy" button, this releases the connectors from the top, unfolds the wings, then enables engine throttle.
(gyro suggested for takeoff)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Docking instructions:
1. Set throttle to around 24
2. Unfold docking equipment
3. Position yourself behind and below carrier
4. When a beacon is detected enable auto dock
5. Approach Carrier, use small inputs to assist docking if necessary
6. Upon connection of the electric connectors, the wings will re fold and the engine will turn off, you may then fold the docking equipment which will also fold the dock arm of the Carrier
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes:
The "bomb view" does not represent where your bombs will fall in any way, it merely allows you to observe them more accurately
Docking may require practice.
Whack Al's Carrier is not yet released, I will link it here when it is
