The Flight of the Vulture event brings a unique aircraft to our game, and today we’d like to take a closer look at it! This subsonic fighter-bomber is a joint development of Yugoslavia and Romania.

The Romanian version’s name means ‘vulture’, and its late modification is the one available to players!
