Another Steampunk build.



The Kestrel is a parasite fighter designed to be stowed aboard an airship until it's needed to defend the fleet. She's a maneuverable little fighter, with a modest armament of two light machine guns.



She is not designed to take-off and land from a runway, and so does not have conventional landing gear. When a new Kestrel comes off the assembly line, it is usually loaded directly onto an airship via on-board cargo cranes. However, it is sometimes necessary to launch a Kestrel from the ground and deliver it to a fleet en route, so a handy launch sled was designed to assist it into them into the air for their first flight.



When taking off, throttle to full, and wait until you've reached around 180mph. Pull back on the stick and activate AG-1. The sled will likely break, but that's fine, it's served its purpose. From there, it's all Kestrel.



I hope you steampunk fans dig this one :D





Happy Flying!
