Description
FOR VERSION 1.3!
Note that this is an eary build of mine and may not be quite up to snugg in all details. To say the least. I updated the look of the cannon though. :)

My take on the Messerschmitt Me 262 bomber buster.
It's an approximation, definitely not a 1:1 replica.
It's armed with one 50mm automatic cannon meant for taking out allied bombers.

Alt controls to fly.
W/S: Variable throttle.
A/D: Ground steering/Yaw.
Up/Down arrow: Pitch.
Left/Right arrow: Roll.
Fire action 1/Num 1: Fire
X/Disable steering: Landing gear.
Hold X/Invert steering: Air brakes.
Space bar: Handbrake.

If you like it check out my bomber version Sturmvogel/Stormbird and the fighter version Schwalbe/Swallow.

Notes!
This was never used in battle and only 2 (AFAIK) prototypes were made, but it's too fun not to build.
The gun fires up to 5 rounds in a salvo, then you need to release and press fire again. This is to somewhat simulate its very low ammo count of 20-30 rounds IRL, and also to avoid stacking even more heavy cannons in the front. :)
I tried to add the swiveling front wheel which was added because of the space taken up by the huge gun, but adding a rotating actuator to the landing gear sadly made it unstable and prone to "flapping" and caused the plane to turn uncontrollably on the ground.

Feel free to edit, but if you re-upload publically in any way please acknowledge the original creation and creator.

Have fun!
