Vector Dynamics Aerodyne X-2 "Skycruiser"

Description
A drunken bet between two Vector Dynamics Senior Execs gave birth to the Aerodyne X-1 VTOL Fire Support Platform.
Countless overworked engineers inside Vector Dynamics' RND department gave birth to X-1's successor.
Introducing... the Skycruiser Multi-Role VTOL. The streamlined and refined big brother to X-1.

Featuring 28 "foxhound" SRAAMs, 6 "Trident" ASMs, 2 fixed coaxial rotary autocannons, 2 radar-assisted front-facing rotary autocannon turrets, and two wing-mounted rocket pods, the Skycruiser can still take on an entire army with confidence, this time capable of doing so while being somewhat safe from enemy fire.

But providing fire support isn't the sole purpose of the Skycruiser. Featuring a water-tight crew cabinet, 8 passenger seats as well as a medical bed, the Skycruiser can either deliver or extract your troops from even the most fortified enemy territory without breaking a sweat.

Of course, the Skycruiser's improved capabilities came with a rather severe drawback: fuel consumption. As it turns out, using 8 jet engines to lift something up in the air costs an astronomical amount of fuel. A trillion-dollar defense budget is almost required to keep this vehicle up and running for any significant periods of time, and of course, the carbon emission ranges from "who cares" to "it's probably going to get a lot warmer".

...Okay, there's another drawback: even though the missile racks are decently-armored, a good hit can still turn the vehicle into a giant flaming fireball in mid air. (Expect some heavy framedrops if that happens) Luckily, several escape hatches, vehicle parachutes and damage control equipments can make sure that anyone that survives the initial blast can escape alive, theoretically speaking, of course.

Anyways, by purchasing this aircraft, you automatically agrees to our Terms and Conditions, as well as our Non-Compete Agreement.

Here at Vector Dynamics, your satisfaction is our top priority!

Note: Vector Dynamics is not responsible for any damage, casualties or loss of resources caused by:
Attempting to fire "Foxhound" missiles before the missile bay is completely extended;
Attempting to fire "Foxhound" missiles while doing sharp maneuvers;
Attempting to fire "Trident" missiles while in plane flight mode;
Attempting to fire "Trident" missiles while they are being reloaded;
Attempting to fire "Trident" missiles while upside-down;
Any self-damaged inflicted while in "Manual Override" mode for the front-facing turrets;
And of course, attempting to use the Skycruiser as a literal cruiser. The crew cabin might be water-proof, but the jet engines are not!

Vector Dynamics is also not responsible for any war crimes, human right violations, criminal activities or acts of terrorism caused by the use of our product. Remember, If it's out of our hands, it's none of our business anymore!
