This is the last one guys, I swear!
FE-326 Folgore (Thunderbolt) jet interceptor
1 ejects takeoff gear
The final iteration of the miniature fighter. Developed 3 years before it was discontinued, it was named after the original nickname used in the '35-'45 war. Safety was completely revised, and modern equipment was finally installed. The single nose mounted 40mm cannon was swapped for a single airspeed tube, and 2 cannons were installed in the wings. It gained more favour with pilots, but it was ultimately phased out. The gas dial still didn't work.
Or maybe not...
I need someone who can graft a rocket engine into this. Upload it without wings. Full credit and 5 up votes to whoever can do it reliably first.
Armament:
2x 40mm cannons (thanks to @Rohan)

@CPTScorpion Thanks, I try to strive for the oddest designs.
Very interesting design.
Hopefully this will become my favourite rocket powered aircraft when some one makes a 10 minute rocket
@Swagnuggit11 Sure thing, I'll keep it in mind.
@Jackie ok, but I would like to help you with stuff like this in the future
@Swagnuggit11 It's fine, man. Just a little thing i put out there. Don't sweat it.
@Jackie I'm sorry I've tried everything I can't get it to work
@Jackie ok
@Swagnuggit11 If you need, the previous rocket plane could be of some help, the engine wasn't the best, but it worked.
@Jackie well, I saw what you did on your previous FE so I can try modifying it to hold that maybe
@Swagnuggit11 Unfortunately, I am unable to download game modifications. XML modified parts, I can do, but no full-blown mods.
Are you able to download mods? And just make this a mod?
@Jackie yah I have the perfect idea
@Jackie yah I have the perfect idea
@Jackie it would be.
@Swagnuggit11 Not to make it go faster, but for the novelty of it. My plane is essentially an Me-163 clone, why not try to cram the original engine in it? The jet is fun, yea, but having a rocket replace the jet engine would by cool, no?
To make it go faster?
I'm on it...
