Originally an icon of the Cold War, the Stratebomber has proved to be too versatile to retire, remaining in active service to this day with a planned service life decades into the future. Powered by eight Blasto J50 turbojet engines, the Stratebomber is armed with 9 Boom 50 bombs and a couple of cruise missles, too.

@AndrewGarrison Literally this is was the default AI Bomber but VR converted
I remastered this one with a bunch of added details and updated the XML file.
Updated with flaps and a bunch of other changes.
I literally live near a air force base that has hundreds of them
It's actually the Boeing B-52H Stratofortress not the Boing Stratrbomber
@rfostoria Totally understandable. Without VR it's very difficult to know how to size things correctly. I'm going through a few recent designs tonight and giving feedback as I try them in VR.
If you make a new model, you will need to make a new post, unfortunately.
@AndrewGarrison Oh ok, I don't have a VR setup so I was sort of guessing with the dimensions. Do you mean the floor and seat need to be lower?
Edit- Ok yeah, I see what you mean. If I update it, is there a way to edit the post with the new model, or does that require re-posting?
Really fun bomber. I tried this out in VR and my only feedback is the cockpit is a little too shallow which makes the seat very high. The seat of the chair is about even with my navel. Other than that I like it.
Boing
Bombs
.
My braincells: "Hmm... I think we could have something here."
Expect some dambusters level s* I'ma somehow make up.
What does it say during a bouncy landing??
Boeing, Boeing, boeing
AI Bomber remake
One of these flew over my house yesterday
@rfostoria oh ok
@Okvitu It's intentionally fictitious.
