This is a very slow propeller air fighter, but it's very dangerous on Simpleplanes. So I enter this plane for both: Challenge and Tournament.

Sikumbang is an attack aircraft production LIPNUR embryo IPTN (Now PT Dirgantara Indonesia). Just ten years after Indonesia's independence, Indonesia has been self-reliant and independent by making fighter aircraft for the benefit of the Indonesian Air Force. The Sikumbang aircraft (code-named: X-01) was a low-wing monoplane aircraft made in Indonesia in 1954 as a COIN and an anti-guerrilla airc craft.

This aircraft has fixed tricycle undercarriage. The pilot sits inside a bubble canopy. The first aircraft got the number NU-200 in 1954.

One of Nurtanio's famous aircraft is the "Beetle" which is still there and intact. The plane was treated and rebuilt by some of the former loyalists of the late Nurtanio faithful from the very beginning of the making of "the Beetle".

In 1953 under the command of Nurtanio Pringgoadisuryo, this depot began to design an aircraft capable of performing tasks as a light armed surveillance aircraft, the NU-200 Sikumbang (Bee). The prototype of this one-person aircraft, using a de Havilland Gipsy VI engine with 200 horsepower, and on 1 August 1954 successfully tested the flight. Then made the next version known as NU-225. Aircraft The Beetle-02 uses a Continental engine O-470-A-powered 225 horsepower, successfully tested flying on 25 September 1957.

On August 1, 1954 successfully flown the prototype "Si Kumbang", a single all-metal plane craft made in accordance with the conditions of the country at that time. This aircraft successfully made / production of three pieces.

    I tried to make as an original fighter that only has a maximum speed of 200 mph with a 225 horsepower engine. And it turns out the plane with low speed is very favorable for close combat
