A-10A Thunderbolt II

This mod adds the historic A-10A ground attack aircraft. The A-10A is outfitted with the General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger 30mm cannon, and 500lb MK-82 free fall bombs. 

We are extremely excited to release this mod and share it with the community. However, please be warned that this is EXTREMELY experimental! The flight physics are created from scratch and while they are representative of real world flight dynamics, they are by no means perfect. This custom implementation also increases the risk of bugs and undesirable behavior. Please be patient with us as we work on increasing the fidelity and accuracy of this simulation.

We hope you enjoy this mod as much as we enjoyed creating it! If you'd like to use the flight physics for your own creations feel free to checkout R3D Core.
