Hughes P21-J MK.IV Devastator "Crimson Skies"

74.3k Mumpsy  5.0 years ago

Here is my updated version of one of the most popular aircraft from the "Crimson Skies" game series. Features: Custom flaps and airbrakes, turbo injection, custom landing gear, explosive rounds (only on ships for some reason), carrier capable, and hopefully mobile friendly.
I am working on a more detailed version with a detailed cockpit that will push this past some devices capabilities, so hopefully this one will work for you. Have fun!

Activation guide:

Act1: Larger wing guns x2.
Act2: Carrier hook.
Act8: Deactivate Main guns x4
Forward on VTOL throttles the turbo.

    @Carbonfox1 No vampire yet! But I did just release J-2 Fury with Black Swan Symbols.

    @Carbonfox1 I am planning on it but I just got really busy at work. Cutting into my SP time >;( Still considering the vampire though. I like the setup for the vampire. Kind of a early prop version of an A-10 Warthog. Which is a good thing!

    @VerldVarIII I always felt like the original was somewhat of an throwback to an Xwing. They had to at least be fans.

    This is awesome! I just dusted off the ol’ Xbox classic a few days ago and was thinking how cool it would be to build some Crimson Skies planes in SP. Nicely done.

    @Treadmill103 I take it back. The arrester hook does stay visible in "photo" mode.

    @Carbonfox1 That game was the first cool "flying" game I ever played. But the plane designs were my favorite! I may try the Vampire. It doesn't look to over complicated. Either that or a Doppelganger?

    @Treadmill103 Thanks! I love the catapult and landing hook addition. I have had to float the catapult hook out away from the front gear to make it work properly, but the good thing is it disappears in-game, and in photo mode. Nicely thought out I must say.

    @MattEpic I know right. Sadly my memories go even further back to the original game for PC. I think we just showed our ages lol!
