Description

I really like this build. It’s one of my favorite aircraft and special for me as a Finn as it’s the workhorse of the Finnish Air Force. I especially love the look of the single seater original Hornets. I had doubts of the success of this build in the start, but once I got it going it 100% turned into my favorite build so far. Once again, added some solid features and payload. The plane carries a LITENING targeting pod used by us Finns and two wing mounted drop tanks. Features include custom gear, an air brake and a landing hook. Might make a version with the Finnish markings in the future. Flight performance isn’t too bad, the roll rate is great but pitch is lacking. I recommend assisting the pitch with yaw when doing turns.

Built in the SPH in KSP version 1.10.1.
