Hello comrades!!
This time I’m hosting a little challenge for all of you.
As stated in the title, this challenge requires participants to create a Soviet aircraft that served during World War II. You’re free to make any type of aircraft you want.
Bomber, fighter, attacker, seaplane whatever.
No fictional
You may choose to recreate aircraft from the following design bureaus:
- Lavochkin–Gorbunov–Gudkov (LaGG) or Lavochkin
- Tupolev
- Petlyakov
- Polikarpov
- Sukhoi
- Yakovlev
- Ilyushin
- Mikoyan–Gurevich
- Even a captured plane too!
Rules
- Participants must submit their own original work (no stealing).
- The aircraft must be a replica of a real aircraft from the chosen manufacturer.
- The aircraft must be able to fly.
- It must be stable during maneuvers.
- Maximum 1500 parts.
- Minimum 10 parts.
Rewards
- 1st plane: 40 upvotes
- 2nd plane: 30 upvotes
- 3rd plane: 20 upvotes
- First Runner-Up : 10 Upvotes
- Second Runner-Up : 10 Upvotes
- +2 bonus upvotes if you use a realistic cockpit and camouflage.
Deadline
(I will not change this, so remember it well.)
February 16th, 2026.
You’re actually free to upload your build as soon as you want, but I’d recommend not rushing it. Take your time to polish and refine it so it can be as PERFECT as possible, if you’re aiming for a PERFECT SCORE.
By the way, it’s kind of a shame this challenge doesn’t really suit fictional aircraft builders… yeah, like me :p
Well.. Maybe Soviet craft is underrated but whatever ┐(￣ー￣)┌

@Mk1Els Umm.. No
Only 1 Craft.
Additional information, you are allowed to make replicas of captured Soviet aircraft or make the Bereznyak-Isayev BI-1 aircraft. All of that is allowed if it actually served during WW2. If it's a post-war era, then it's not allowed. If it's a captured aircraft, I hope you don't use aircraft that you've already made before, that's cheating. You have to really make it from scratch.
It's a bit confusing, but I hope you at least make aircraft from a real Soviet design bureau.
Does 2 entry is allowed ?
@Cadvalto like I have a GAZ-AAA ready, but I can’t post it cuz I want the time to be right….
@SimplyElegant Maybe later, buddy.
@Cadvalto
So no trucks….
Awwww
seems cool i guess, nothing really to lose
@Mitterbin Okay, goodluck!
@Cadvalto i see... i join...
@Mitterbin :/.. :)?
@Cadvalto it ok
@Mitterbin It seems you're not interested? I intentionally wanted the participants to make it as a replica. You can make it as simple as possible as long as it's over 10 parts.
@Cadvalto ...
@Mitterbin @Mitterbin Нет,
Replica.
@ShadowHeavyIndustry That's not quite it, buddy. I said that you're free to create any aircraft of any type as long as it's Soviet and it served the Soviets during World War II, actually served in the war, meaning it was used by the Soviets, even if it only flew once.
Fictional ?
Sounds fun. Im in.
Might be nice to take a break from my current project, So why not? I will apply
Only replicas or fiction are allowed as long as they are from the design bureau mentioned?
I’ll spotlight this because
Ppl like 40 upvotes
@Hooha12 Goodluck!
hell yeah! I'm joining!
