A large quad engine delta wing bomber with a stealthy style. Despite its large size and heavy payload, it's surprisingly maneuverable. It flies best at high speed. Enjoy :D

i dont have enough points to upvote this sadly
Wow
This is beautiful
@KCferrari oh thank you! I'll tag you when I'm done
@Ephwurd Sure, this thing's pretty old, so I don't mind
Nice! And btw can I use this as a base for my next build??
Its a beast!
I know you like Ace Combat, so I'll tell you, this plane totally reminds me of the Arkbird and the Z.O.E
@KCferrari Well I made it canardless, controls are a bit on the floaty side but it turns good....
Your designs are so clean yet complex like a good poem. I try to mimic that but still haven't been able to.
@Pauciloquent Yea I experimented with most of that. Ideally I liked the cleaner look of no canards at all, but they helped the handling so much they couldn't be avoided. as for the surface type, I found when I avoided nose up at high speed, it ended up being extremely sluggish in landing. The rear landing gear though.. thats purely aesthetic. it looked really stupid with only 2 rears with that much weight. I would have shifted them forward, closer to the CoM for a better takeoff pivot, but laziness.. lol
I love the design great work : ) but with a few changes to some settings you can get the top speed up from 955 to 1025 at 10000ft and less nose up at high speed + slightly better pitch.... all I did was change all the wing surfaces from semi-symmetric to symmetric then change the forward top wings that control pitch to semi-symmetric and then increased pitch control surface by one step on the rear.... oh and I removed one sett of rear landing gear and turned the remaning sett around to aid takeoff... you probably know all this already but I just thought I share...
hey @KCferrari , here's the complement of your bomber https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/s8KDGN/SF-7-Basilisk :P
@KCferrari Oh! The Arkbird! Let's see if there is any Scinfaxi!
Very nice design. And it flies great!
@Halphas Thanks! When I made this I was thinking along the lines of the B2 mixed with Ace Combat's Arcbird, but I see what you mean. It has the same double engine look as the B1 from behind.
It looks so like a mixture of B-1B and the B-2A! Anyway, it's awesome!
@Timmy123429 You had mentioned wanting a bomber in my Talon's style? Hope you like :D
