VA medium range 'Crescent' bomber

[RedDwarfIV]

The Crescent is a small medium range bombing aircraft. It carries only two bombs, and releases them simultaneusly, but its small size and simple design means they are easily mass produced. The bombs have wings, and they glide very well. Crescents are also incredibly maneuverable. They can outperform any previous Veto Aerospace aircraft. At least, we think it can. Especially since it can do loop the loops under 50 metres tall, and no other VA aircraft has ever done that. Its turn speed is also very quick. Gliding is exceptional, especially unladen. This aircraft may do well as an interceptor if retrofit, though this has not been tested. To mark it out from other corporations\' aircraft, we\'ve painted our logo onto some delta wings and used them as tail fins.

Bombing run:

One of VA\'s old Anhinga types suffered a malfunction and crashlanded not far from the space centre. Rather than fix it, we decided it would make a good target for testing the Crescent\'s abilities.

Every aircraft is a Pinto

Yes, the Anhinga is still there, and yes, the engines have been torn off the Crescent - But the bombs hit [Remember, these aren\'t even high explosive], and damage was done, and the problem with the engines can be fixed by making the landing gear taller.

So, from this we know that the bombs work, they glide, and they can hit targets. We also discovered that the landing gear should be taller. We are going to act on information gathered, so that you - the customer - can get the very best from Veto Aerospace technology.
