FMA IAe 37

18.7k NexusGaming  3.4 years ago

The IAe 37 was a jet trainer built by the Horten Brothers in Argentina. Wind tunnel tests began in 1953 as did testing of scale models at speeds up to 200 km/h (120 mph). A full scale glider was built and made its first flight on 1 October 1954. Most unusually the pilot lay prone and looked out through the clear nose. It never flew, so I tried to replicate what it would have performed like in my personal opinion. Many blueprints disagree with some features so I mixed them together while making this. AG1 is parachute.

    @WiiMini it did not ever fly so that would be impossible

    Very impressive work, so easy to land, very smooth. I also like the sound of the engines, and would like to know how it was done.

    @rexrexThezion I'd love to see you build this, accurate to every part, and not use a gyro

    @rexrexThezion the real deal never flew so do you think i have a fricking idea on how it flew
    the thing also flips like a drunken toad without the gyro

    @KnightOfRen I used the few images that exist of it to build it out of fuselages until I managed to match the appearance.
    However since many images of it contradict one another, I had to hybridize it
