FEAF RA-39M "Cormorant" Biplane Jet Attacker

9,408 MisterMasada  8.2 years ago

First attack aircraft of any sort I've ever built. Comes with one heck of a payload for it's size, along with two more wings than most people are used to. It also includes a 30mm autocannon (Read: Bridge Wrecking) and a simple cockpit. It's also the first plane I've put my new roundel on, so there's that too.
AG 1 - Drop tank
AG 2 - Jettison rocket pods
ALSO Don't pitch down while firing rockets.

This plane was inspired quite a bit by a mix of AV-8B Harrier and F-4 Phantom, as well as a realization that I had never built a biplane.

    @Supercraft888 Ohhhhhhh man, you reminded me of something that I've been wanting to make, but it would be pretty impossible to. There's this show called last exile that has a bunch of dieselpunk-esque aircraft called vanships and I want to make one.

    @Supercraft888 Hey thanks! I guess I can see where you're coming from in a few ways, perhaps especially with the marriage of old and new that I did here.
