Description:

Welcome to the V-44 Valkyrie. This aircraft was designed to be a flying battleship. The goal of this aircraft is to be a single platform for carrying out any type of offensive mission. It is currently an anti everything vehicle while in the beta stage. (It’s OP, I will nerf I promise)

Armament

– The Valkyrie is equipped with a front and rear mounted Praetorian cannons, x2 Mk21 Centurion’s, x2 Mk49 Spartan’s and x2 M5 Sandstorm’s.

– The missile launchers currently loaded with airburst proximity tracking missiles that follow targets and blow up within proximity to the target.

Multiplayer

– Currently the server you join does not need to have this mod in order for it to work.
If you try spawn this the Valkyrie on a random server you will be met with a message telling you that you can’t spawn it.
The server admin must enable Valkyrie spawning before anyone can spawn one.

– How to enable in multiplayer (if you’re an admin):
– To allow a player to spawn the Valkyrie you must set "DCON_Valkyrie_Enabled" to true on that player.

– To allow everyone to spawn the Valkyrie on your server run the following code locally in the debug console:

DCON_Valkyrie_Enabled = true; publicVariable "DCON_Valkyrie_Enabled";

– Once enabled anyone with this mod can now spawn the Valkyrie.

Notes

– Currently the missiles are unavoidable if you’re locked onto by the Valkyrie. Considering the rockets are also airburst -rounds you have no hope in surviving, this will change.

– The Valkyrie currently can not be damaged duto a bug where it likes to commit suicide every now and then by shooting it’s self in the face.

– Artillery does not work yet.
– Rockets do not work yet (Waiting on BIS to release a function to main branch).
– Turrets are inaccurate at distances over 300m or at speeds more than 50kmh

Todo

– Add artillery.
– Prevent from blowing itself up
– Add editor module
– Add Gunner seat
– Add exterior seats

Known Bugs

– It shoots itself.
– There’s a lot of generic bugs.
