Description
The Banshee is an advanced fighter craft developed by the Brotherhood of Nod that appears in the Command and Conquer Tiberian Sun.
This macnine is fast, agile, can survive a few crash landings, and has an automatic takeoff! Perfect for incredible stunts. Anyone can fly this!

The Banshee was featured by The Beard'd Beast in this video!
Controls
  • X: Thrust
  • TFGH: Pitch and Roll
  • RY: Yaw
  • J (toggle): Automatic Takeoff (VTOL)
  • L/R arrow keys: Cannons

Tips
  • This plane can take off on it's own! Touch nothing else, hit 'J'.
  • Be careful using the cannons while in VTOL mode, they have quite strong recoil.

Background Info
The Banshee is extremely thin, compact and very heavily armored. Its speed and armor mean that the Banshees nearly always return from missions.The Banshee was named after a female spirit from the Irish mythology, usually seen as an omen of death and a messenger from the Otherworld - a fitting name indeed, given its weapons can send screaming plasmatic death towards its target(s). Humorously, when the Banshee is shot down in Command and Conquer Tiberian Sun, the pilot merely says "whoops" calmly before crashing into the ground, unlike other aircraft pilots in the entire series, which scream or yell out help before they crash.

A huge thanks to Shade for the amazing work on the video! Be sure to check out Shade's Youtube Channel!
Thanks also to Drako for pointing out some control issues :)

Enjoy :)

Banshee is also the name of a Creature featured in Avatar the Movie, those dragon things.

I don't think I'll update this unless a game update breaks it, but I'm glad you like it :)

Great job! This is probably my favourite areal vehicle. Just one suggestion, it would be really cool if the cannons could be a bit mroe powerful, maybe 3x or 4x.

@DubMeister
No, that is the god abilities, in-game, the infinite ammo. and just hitting keys quickly I guess

Those mods also include making cannons rapidly fire?
