Welcome to the Stealth Challenge!
The deadline is the 1st of December 2020!
Stealth Technology.
Stealth technology is the use of advanced design and specialised materials to make an aircraft (or other) difficult or even impossible to detect by radar or sonar.
Categories.
The challenge will be split into two separate categories: Fixed/Rotary Winged Aircraft and Water Born Vessels. That means that you can submit one creation for each one of the two categories.
Requirements For Submission.
- Must be over 150 parts and under 1500 parts.
- Must be functional.
- Must have the 'stealth' tag.
- Must be a successor to this post.
- Must have a plausible design.
- Creation can be fictional or replica.
- Your creation must be a completely original build, so no successors of previous creations.
- Your submission cannot use any modded parts! However, XML modding is encouraged.
Judging criteria.
Performance: Does the aircraft/water vessel handle well? If armed, does it hit targets reliably? Is the performance realistic?
0/15 points.Design: Is the design realistic? If a replica, is it accurate to blueprints and performance? Is it practical?
0/10 points.Build Quality: Is it part efficient? Does it have custom parts such as landing gear and weapons? Is the placement of details and decals well done?
0/10 points.Description: Is the description eye catching? Does it describe the submission. Does it explain the design? Are the controls listed? Are there pictures of the creation? Real or fictional?
0/7.5 points.Personal Impression: Did I enjoy playing with your creation?
0/5 points.
Total points = 47.5
Prizes:
1st place - 30 upvotes and a spotlight!
2nd place - 20 upvotes

@Skywolf277i Your design must be a realistic (plausible) design.
@Blue0Bull. Hey can I ask why my plane didn't make requirements
I am almost done on the ship [maybe possibly by the end of the week?]. There should be a teaser in a few days.
@Blue0Bull hey mate when did the results will come ? (not that i want to win i just want to see it)
@HawaiiRanger I am fine with making some exceptions as long as it is not overly long.
@SPairforce I am not sure, I think it will take about two weeks.
I know it may be too late to ask, but is there a possibility you could wait on the deadline for the ships? I've been working as hard as I can on something for almost a year and I would really appreciate it if you would hold the deadline back a little bit. Thank you very much!
How long after the deadline will we know the results of the challenge, I already know I’m not going to win, but I just want to know.
Great, fun challenge, just posted my entry, I call it the X-101
There should be a teaser soon.
@Blue0Bull Hello,
I have been working extremely hard on a ship entry for a while for this challenge, and I was wondering if in the event that I don't finish it in time you could wait a while for it? If you don't want to postpone the whole challenge, could you just wait a while on the ships?
Thank you very much!
@Justadood I am not very good either and fairly new here as well, I might can help you sometimes.
My plane has been uploaded and has been instantly disqualified as it has not passed the 150 block minimum. There has been an updated version of the plane but its no longer part of the successer list so

I just looked at the planes and all i can say is that i have no chance at winning this, well i never had a chance to begin with as i came to this challenge to improve my skills on building and i only now cause of this challenge that i have used fuselage for wings and im still very new to building in this game, but all i can say is im not gonna win but im glad i took this challenge as it has made me develop my building skills to a extremely good level for someone who has only started building this year.
I have done some experimenting for awhile. I entered one of my experiments into another users challenge and it received postive feedback and actual placed high up. It will be diffucult to build my design with 150 parts as it is a very simple, clean design but I might can make it work. I can already tell by the succesor list I ain’t gonna win, but I’m going to try!
@Blue0Bull Sounds good.
@AzureCorp Awesome, I have judged some entries already. But as you may know, I am quite busy with college. All results will be published somewhere end December.
i posted mine a while ago.
Just submitted my entry 😊
@Blue0Bull You said "Water Born" but it's "Water Borne" Or else I could make a crab and it'd be valid. Also I'm joining.
There are a lot of amazing creations, in this challenge. I think you did a great work and a lot of creator worth my admiration, and I can presume that the judgement work will be really hard.
I made a stealth aircraft that works well but its not 105 pieces its only 63
December 15 is my birthday!
@Blue0Bull nah nvm
@Blue0Bull but what if I delete it?
