Extra info:
The basis for this plane was built BEFORE the weapons update meaning the MGs are more for show than anything else. They will shoot your prop off. If you want some cool cinematic shots turn vehicle damage off. The rockets often don't detonate on contact but I'm still working on it so that might come soon. I DON'T CLAIM ANY OF THE MICROCONTROLLERS USED. I'm too stupid for that stuff lmao.

Message from creator:
I've been mentally drained for a few months now. I've been putting playing off Stormworks since I could only play 15 minutes at times before being exhausted by everything, but I'm better now. I've been working on/off on this for a few weeks after i realized it was still sitting on my PC unused, so this isn't some big comeback or anything. Thanks for downloading and have a nice day. <3
