DSM Super Sabre - Interceptor

DSM Super Sabre - Interceptor
===============================================================
This is DSM's high performance atmo dog fighter.

Weighing in at less than half of the formidable A4 Phantom ][,
this fighter/interpector has the best acceleration and altitude performance of all
DSM's military atmo aircraft.

It is loosely based on an F14 Tomcat, although without the wing control -
the wings are permanently in a swept state.
It files very well and can pull out of steep dives brilliantly.

It flies as close to a real plane as you can get in vanilla - no mods required.
The lift engines hold it in the air and you adjust the throttle with the configured
control options, and just steer. Adjust the gyros to suit your preferences.
Afterburner is operated by turning on the (filled) oxygen generator, make sure the
hydrogen engines are set to max thrust and press button 6 to turn on/off.

: Features :

A mixture of mostly light and some heavy armor provides reasonable protection
against light ground fire and in dogfights.

Afterburner - 3 rocket engines running directly from an ice converter and configured
at max thrust - you just press button 6 for an instant boost

Dead mans switch - A timer is configured to release a heap of parachutes and shut down engines
should you be playing on a survival server and the server crashes - the craft will safely touch down.
Note you will need to reset the timer every few minutes otherwise it will activate. Best to deactivate
completely during battle :)

Wing-tip Decoys - Mandatory if you want to survive more than a few shots

4 nose mounted guns - it looks a little bulky but testing showed, even though its kinda obvious,
4 guns were much more effective than 2 in combat

Survival supplies - Located behind the cockpit is a cargo containner with survival supplies, should you
be shot down. Note that in testing, this spot is the most likely to survive.

The rest you can discover for yourself :)
It is best to orient yourself with all the controls before setting out, all DSM Atmo craft have the same layout.


Hope you enjoy :)
