{{Review|[[User:Pepe|Pepe]]|This gunboat is a flying fortress. This gunboat is a sitting duck, too. It depends on you.

When you start shooting back with Rheinland Secondary Guns, fighters will be surprised. Strong Rheinland missiles will give them more surprises, as it insta-kills shields at all VHF and most bombers. When you take down bombers from pack, others will go home. Ah, yes... Capital Armor Upgrade Mk VIII will help you with that bombers, giving you 540.000 hull points total...}}
