Missile Skyfighter

Quickstart

1. Craft the Missile Skyfighter at a crafting table:

1. Select the crafted item and use it on the side of a block to deploy the jet. The item is not consumed.
2. You automatically mount the one-seat jet. Look and move normally to fly.
3. While riding, tap/use, attack, or press Jump to fire. The action-bar prompt shows “Tap: Drop Missiles” when the weapon is ready.
4. Aim at your target before firing. The jet launches TNT missiles in the direction you are looking.

Overview

Missile Skyfighter adds a rideable, free-flying jet equipped with a missile launcher. It has one passenger seat and is designed for aerial movement and bombing runs.

The jet has 40 health, no gravity, and can fly over land and water. Its flight is air-controlled, allowing you to steer while airborne.

What It Adds

• Missile Skyfighter rideable jet
• One driver seat
• Free flight without gravity
• TNT missile launcher
• Third-person vehicle camera while mounted
• Craftable deployment item

How To Use

Deploying the Jet

Hold the Missile Skyfighter item and use it on a block. The jet appears beside the targeted block, faces the direction you are looking, and mounts you automatically.

You can deploy multiple jets by crafting or obtaining additional Missile Skyfighter items.

Flying

Use Minecraft’s normal movement and view controls to pilot the jet:

• Move and look to steer through the air.
• Forward movement provides the best flight speed.
• Backward movement is slower than forward movement.
• The jet can pass over water and does not fall because it has no gravity.

Firing Missiles

The launcher fires a TNT projectile from in front of the rider’s view.

Use any of these controls while you are the driver:

• Tap or use the mounted vehicle.
• Press the attack button.
• Press Jump.

Missiles travel in the direction you are looking. The launcher has a short cooldown of about 1.5 seconds between shots. The action bar displays the weapon prompt and cooldown.

The missiles are TNT and can explode after being launched, making the jet effective for attacking targets or bombing areas from above.

Dismounting

Use Minecraft’s normal dismount control to leave the jet. Your camera, equipment, and held item return to normal after you dismount.

Crafting And Obtaining

The Missile Skyfighter is crafted at a crafting table using iron, a firework rocket, redstone, TNT, and glass.

In Creative mode, look for Missile Skyfighter in the Items category.

Abilities And Mechanics

The jet automatically tracks its driver while mounted. Its missile launcher only activates for the player in the driver seat.

Progression And Strategy

• Build the jet early when you want a fast way to explore large areas from the air.
• Use elevated flight paths to keep a clear view of targets.
• Aim slightly ahead of moving targets because missiles travel forward after launch.
• Wait for the cooldown prompt to clear before attempting another shot.
• Keep spare Missile Skyfighter items available if you are using the jet for repeated bombing runs.
