RE: Tu-99 Torpedo Assault Bomber


Comrades, <http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=56437 attached
below>
is the finished prototype for the Tu-99 Assault Bomber. With a payload
possible
of six hot-load torpedoes and hardpoints for eight more external launch style,
we at the Advanced Research Dept believe that this will present a serious
threat
and counterbalance to the recent launch of the Vanguard.

Been waiting for this guy since BF :-) Those external tubes are nice. Very
dangerous looking. And the oversized engine compliments it well. Good use
of those black arch things.

Got to say tho, the landing gear do seem a bit tiny for all that tonage!
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=514040 Id be scared to land
it if I were the pilot!

I like the design of the gun barrels too... all in all, an utterly
ridiculous amount of firepower for one poor sap to drive.. the way it
should be :-)
