History of the S-22 Ilya Muromets

The Ilya Muromets designed by Igor Sikorsky, first flew in 1913 as a passenger aircraft in the Russian Empire. Flying the route between Kiev and St. Petersburg, the Ilya Muromets would set the world record of longest distance at that time flying for 1,2 kilometres.

With such military potential, it was decided to convert the S-22 into a dedicated strategic bomber in late 1913's, but with the Great War started after the death of Archduke of Austria; Franz Ferdinand, only 2 S-22 bombers were completed out of initial 10. Nevertheless, it still operated spectacularly with only one of the Muromets destroyed by enemy fire, and bombing German cities both day and night with no losses, and moderate damage.

After the war, the Muromets resumed civillian role in 1921 onwards, but due to worn out engines, and air frames, the S-22 was deemed too difficult to operate and retired. Flying for the last time in 1922.

Creator's note to pilots

This plane flies like the real one, meaning:
-Takeoff speed is ~40Mph
-Max speed is ~69Mph
-Cruise speed is about 55Mph
-Stall speed is <~30Mph
There are 28 boom 25's in this plane with 0.1s drop delay. However, due to blast radius, chain effect of bomb explosion, and the amount of bombs in the plane. NEVER drop bombs on low level, it would destroy the plane.

This is my second attempt to create the S-22 Ilya muromets, first one can be found here. Lots of bugs were in that plane, veering off to the left in takeoff. And not forgetting about its hideous level of detail.

Miraculously, I was able to add more necessary details before surpassing 400 part limit making sure its mobile friendly. If you guys want a PC level of detail (+600 Part), just let me know,
