B-57B Canberra Bomber

Description
The Canberra was the first British jet bomber, developed in the late 1940s and first flying in 1951. It proved very popular on the export market, due to its ability to outrun early jet interceptors and obvious performance advantages over piston-engined bombers.

The B-57 is an American export variant; the B-57B added four cannons (or eight machine guns), outboard pylons, a new cockpit, and a rotary bomb bay.

Though originally built in the 50s, NASA still operates a version of these for high-altitude research due to their much larger payload capacity compared to other suitable aircraft. They found them so useful that they brought one out of mothballs in 2011 - 41 years after it was put in storage!

Takeoff under full load may be problematic. Back up first.
Landing gear are weaksauce.

Notes
Built because I freaking felt like it.

Credits to CCCanyon for the cluster bomb design. I put more grenades in it.

1x scale. It's actually surprisingly small.

One thing about the Canberra is that it was surprisingly agile - and so is this replica.

your ace combat 7 mods are good but they act like papaer and are super floppy. they like to randomly break in two and explode

The thing is is that I was doing that and they still broke and bounced around.

Full engine, full throttle, and pull up until you take off. As long as you don't hit any mountains, you should be fine.

I have made the landing gear a bit stronger, though.

I'm having a problem with taking off. The landing gear want to break all the time and the plane bounces around, which most of the time causes the wings to hit the ground and detonate the rockets.

The Trinity is the big red missile, and the vacuum missiles are the grey ones on the sides.
FredTheFlipin'PufferFish Apr 22, 2019 @ 5:41pm 
Witch one are those? The big ones in the middle? The 3 big ones?

The Trinity and the vacuum missiles are not on the bomber, but the rest is.
