About


The BNRV-007 Carbon Cobra was originally just going to be a concept aircraft from the Phenex Aircraft Company (PAC). With so many other aircraft manufacturers in the SimplePlanes world, PAC decided they needed to see what other companies were designing and building. Several spies were secretly sent to steal the designs and technology from these other manufacturers. The spies managed to infiltrate quite a few companies to such Martin Aviation by @Chancey21 and they even got in the train manufacturing company of @RailfanEthan. PAC’s spies gathered secrets from these other companies for several years without ever being caught. Some spies are thought to still be active, but only PAC knows. The most important designs stolen came from @BaconRoll. The designs came in handy since PAC now had plans used for most of the aircraft already in service of the New Republic of Vanadia Air Force. With a challenge submitted to the SimplePanes world to build a new fighter to join the New Republic of Vanadia Air Force PAC felt they have a leg up on all the competition. From the plans taken from @BaconRoll the BNRV-007 Carbon Cobra was born. The airframe design of the BNRV-007 is looks very similar to the stolen designs. The engine specifications were used to mimic the look and sound, but they have been upgraded by the use of PAC’s own technology. The BNRV-007 is equipped with mostly air-to-ground weapons but does include some air-to-air for self-defense. During development of there were several different code names but Carbon Cobra was finally picked. The name uses only the letters from the creator of the challenge’s name.

    Thanks for all the comments and upvotes. I've been waiting to see what @Chancey21 and @RailfanEthan thought of being in the description of this plane. Hopefully they'll come check it out.
