RAE PRESENTS:
THE P-35 VULTURE IN ALL ITS GLORY!
I present to you all the P-35H Vulture, a twin engine multirole heavy fighter. It is powered by two "Deimos" turboprop engines that produces 2000hp each. Its engines drive two contra-rotating propellers each which allows the Vulture to reach high speeds, up to 410 mph at high altitudes. The "Deimos" engine is a turbocharged version of the P-37 Dragon's "Phobos" engine.
Its armament includes three 30mm autocannons in the nose and four 20mm cannons in the wing roots. It also has 2 hardpoints for bombs or rocket pods.
Don't expect it to perform like a Mossie. I mean, seriously, it has two Westland Wyverns for engines. Of course it won't be maneuverable.
Controls/Instructions
AG8- nav lights
Change view for gun cam
Trim for trim
VTOL for flaps
- don't land too hard or the plane will bounce and do backflips.
Features
- powerful guns
- nose art
- dank paintjob
- P-38 style turbochargers
SPECIAL THANKS TO @F4f879 and @DarthAbhinav for testing!
This is a massive overhaul of my earlier P-35 Vulture. The overhaul includes:
- tricycle landing gear
- different weapon layout
- more modern wing style
- better looking engines
- more detail overall
Build time: around 6 days (including procrastination and sleep)
Hope you all enjoy!

@Razor3278 he also placed them upvotes to those I like the most
@Razor3278 no problem you also won the STOL challenge
@diegoavion84 thanks for the mass upvotes!
I just tested it. It is epic. My only suggestion would have been to add more yaw, but other wise, it’s eqsy to control and great. I wish I could balance my planes so they fly well.
@Pianoman thanks! Any thoughts?
SSSvaSSa thanks! Any opinions on my build?
@BogdanX thanks! Any thoughts or criticism?
@Lylian heh, thanks! I am proud of this plane, definitely one of my best builds.
No Problem. The upvote was mainly for the collaboration challenge (considering you and @Rodrigo110 where the only contestant.) And even if it hadn't been for the challenge, I would have definitely upvoted this. Great Work. I can wait to try it (I can't yet because my computer is co-operating with me, if you see what I mean.
@Lylian thanks!
@Razor3278 It's a great build. Looks cool and flies great! The symbol's are great too.
@Mumpsy thanks! Any thoughts about this plane?
@Razor3278 Anytime!
@Strikefighter04 @F4f879 @ForeverPie thanks!
Nice.
Well, great job anyways @Razor3278
@Johnnyboy9 hey, it's a heavy fighter with two turboprop engines, of course it won't be maneuverable
@Razor3278 I think that you've done a great job for this build. In my opinion, you could work a bit more on the maneuverability, but yeah, you've done good
@Rodrigo110 @Johnnyboy9 @Blue0Bull thanks guys! What do y'all think?
@DarthAbhinav thanks! I appreciate it!
@Tapak thanks!
@F4f879 @DarthAbhinav it's finished!
