F-4S Phantom II (2)

The flight model and the plane itself are mostly done, I'm just planning out the other loadouts.

Because this Phantom variant lacks a gun, I included the Mk4 mod 0 gunpod, which houses the Colt Mk11 mod 5 double barrel 20mm cannon with 750 rounds. Although, not all of the loadouts will have the gunpod and I'm probably going to remove it from the default one.

I also made a new version of the MER-7 multiple ejector rack and I'm also planning to make a TER-7, which is a shorter version with 3 hardpoints instead of 6. One of the loadouts I'm planning uses 3x MER-7 and 2x TER-7 to mount a total of 24 Mk82's.

I also added a power takeoff feature since the afterburners turning on at different rates can cause excessive yaw on takeoff. If you hold down the brake and throttle up at the same time for 3 seconds, the engines will throttle up to full burner while the brake is on, allowing you to get to full power on both engines before rolling. It's actually a pretty fun and useful feature, so I'm planning to update the F-16C V5 with it.

I originally wanted to do loadouts with a mix of AIM-7F's and AIM-7E-2's, but I decided a full -7F loadout would be more realistic. Although, I still want to use the AIM-7E-2's in a future project.

This currently sits at 510 parts, 346 without missiles and racks/rails. I don't expect the part count to go up by a ton at this point.


Bomber with a Bite / A-26B-50 Invader

I have no idea who in their right mind thought 14x M2 Brownings were a good idea on a bomber, but oh well.

I've been wanting to make a bomber with working turrets for a while and thought this would be a good option since it has only 2 turrets with a pretty simple design.

Not much to say about this one other than the fact that it is flyable and the turrets work.

The A-26B-50 is currently 226 parts and thats just the fuselage without landing gear, weapons, and a ton of other details. To help keep the part count down though, I plan on keeping this metallic livery.


I highly encourage using the Jetstream instead of tagging.

    @donkski Not sure... On PC, you just hold Shift and Ctrl, but on Mobile I guess that wouldn't work

    How would the takeoff feature work on mobile? I use the on screen joystick and you can’t really have brake on while throttling up

    @ReinMcDeer If you're looking for loadout ideas, I'd love to see one that I use a lot for ground strikes in the old Strike Fighters 2 games;
    .
    4 Sparrows, 4 Sidewinders
    1x 600gal centerline tank
    18x Mk.82 bombs on two MER and two TER's
    .
    Was never good at ground attack in that game but was still fun to dump all 18 500lb freedom leaflets on my target lol

    @Ded I've been looking up specific racks and launchers (MER-7, TER-7, TER-9A, LAU-128, LAU-7, etc.), we're both cringe nerds :v

    "I have no idea who in their right mind thought 14x (AN/)M2 Brownings were a good idea..."
    .
    ...This IS the USA we're talking about here. They clearly did - take what you will from what I'm implying ;)

    I am legit excited for that Phantom though
