- Introduction
A paint scheme for all the anime fans out there, this repaint features Sheryl Nome of Macross Frontier fame. The mottled green is a reference to Japanese Army aviation of the Second World War.
Â
This "J" variant locally assembled in Japan features a number of improvements over the standard XR5, namely ram-air turbines for auxiliary power during atmospheric flight and improved engine cooling. TPS coverage has also been increased over the nose and cockpit area; this also serves as an anti-glare measure. (These are cosmetic differences only and reflect local preferences, inspired by real-life Japanese fighter aircraft - F15J, F-2, etc).

There shouldn't be any bugs, it's just a little skin.
To use this skin in your suborbital cargo hauling scenarios, simply addSKIN SherylNome
to the XR5's ship configuration code within the scn file.
