The TF-12 Tiger Griffon was designed to test how efficient a turbojet and piston powered aircraft would be. It wasn't the most fuel efficient and it still couldn't beat the speed of the P-51 even if it tried. But eventually designers came up with the turboprop. This aircraft though can be considered the first "turboprop" of the era. It flies like a dart and has 6 wing guns. Its massive wing inlets are used for the turbojet in the back. And the one on the nose is for the piston engine. This plane really is a blast to fly. So go nuts with it! AG1=nav lights G=LandingGear VTOLdown=flaps. Enjoy!!!

Yea@Trijets
@Hedero lol, I see what you mean though, the front of the plane looks a bit like mine besides the giant engine cooling or intake in the front
Nah its completely different.@Trijets
Mmmmm maybe I copy lmao
Thank you.@lol112
Good job
Very good
Super plane
Thank you so much!@Falken
Oh my god! I love your design ! Nice work !
Nice looking build!
Yeah exactly @Hedero
Oh so I see. Well building isn't the #1 priority on this site all the time anyways. Its also important to not be rushed to build and upload all the time. That's sorta the nice thing about SP.com. You don't have to upload consistantly. Its pretty nonchalant.@CRJ900Pilot
I've been busy with school and personal matters. And whenever something is near completion, I lose all motivation in it. I have a bunch of 95% finished planes that I don't think are good enough to post. @Hedero
Well thank you! Your builds are pretty sweet too. Why haven't you built anything in so long?@CRJ900Pilot
No problem! I love you're designs @Hedero
Thank you!@CRJ900Pilot
Nice!
