The Skarwing Heavy Bomber is built with 167 STOCK parts and weighs 28.8 tons empty / 44.3 tons fueled. There is a long range model which adds underwing tanks providing 1,920 additional units of liquid fuel. It is stable and maneuverable. Maximum altitude is ~ 12,000m, but the bomber has to maintain full afterburner and a 9.2 degree upward pitch to maintain it. Most efficient cruising altitude is 10,000m which results in a range of about 2500km over 3 hours flight time.
The craft is crewed by 7 Kerbals: A piliot, a flight engineer/bombardier, and 5 gunners). Bomb bay is located in the central fuselage and contains a seat for a bombardier. Standard load-out is three 1700 lb unguided munitions, but Kerbals have been known to haul around pretty much anything in it (Moar fuel...big krash! -Bob Kerman).
Zip folder contains 5 different load-outs for the craft (no payload, long range w/ no payload, 3 bombs, long range w/ 3 bombs, and a super long range version).
