Description

Concept and Story

The KDF K-61 Quetzalcoatl Strike VTOL Joins its older brother KDF K-91 Izanagi as the military’s newest Strike Aircraft. This all-around performer can take off from any platform via normal airstrip to aircraft carriers. Can be armed with 6 missiles (usable) for strike support and front-mounted gun (for show) reminiscent of designs from archived alien footage of the A-10 warthog from millennia-old records

This craft is one of my favorite original military crafts to date. An Original design I borrow inspiration from one of my favorite strike crafts the A-10 and thought about what would it look like if the United States retired the original and made a new craft in the design process a mix between an apache and a A-10 and then said turn it into a VTOL. This craft comes fully stock (NO MODS) and only requires base game and DLC. I use custom flags which are required for my custom cockpit and design workflow for the VTOL jets.

Gameplay

Use the I and K keys to tilt the VTOL jets forward and back freely. Does not require locking as they are completely stable. Craft can fly stable to allow for formations for strike teams. (as shown in my demo video). If you start running low on power because of the lights either turn them off or enable Infinite energy.

SAS on for consistent flight mechanics

(Note: if using fly by mouse mod be careful of the way it handles in VTOL flight mode only recommended for forwarding flight if using that tool)

RCS (default R key) Open and Shut Canopy for Pilots
AG 1 Turns on and off Jets
AG2 Switches Jet modes
AG3 Controls from MK2 Drone (forward flight unmanned)
AG4 Control from OKTO2 Drone (for radial out priority optional unmanned)
AG5 Toggle back Landing gear (for extra support)
AG6 Toggle LY-35 Ladder

This is a very fun craft. Have fun flying Sortie missions and taking great screenshots!
