Title: Next Aces High Fighter to be Added
Post by: nrshida on August 21, 2023, 03:17:50 AM: With this I'd cleanly be able to out-turn Techwrek's FM-2, out-zoom Stepsis' Ta152 and with its 12 50-cals and inflight-adjustable convergence be able to shoot down a Yak-3 if I aimed at the tiny fuel tank very carefully.

You have the traditional 2-weeks to add it otherwise I'm cancelling my subscription...

For those who may not know, here is the original inspiration of the craft, from the Halloween special, "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!"

My other favorite cartoon as a kid in the 60s.

Was a time you could fly the RV-8 with 4 20mm.

And there were space aliens and flying saucers and a mothership. :old:
