Hi everyone, it’s been quite a bit since I’ve last done anything, life’s been busy for me because of school and my job. Idk if I’ll really get back into SimplePlanes but this here is something I’ve been working on for awhile and after getting silver I felt like this would be a good celebration so without further ado, the Neupanzer I

Background:
During the secret rearming of the German army in the early 1930s several new tanks were designed that would go on to become the backbone of the German army. But there were a few designs that would not see service beyond the prototype stage, and the Neupanzer I was one of those designs. After only ten were constructed production was stopped in favor of a improved heavy tank, the Neubaufahrzeug. The few Neupanzers that were built served as training vehicles or propaganda. However one Neupanzer saw extensive combat serving as the personal command tank of Oberst Johann Busch.

Controls:
VTOL for rotating the turrets
Trim for gun elevation/depression
Pitch for speed
Roll for turning
Group 7 for headlight

Guns:
Just Cannon Button for the 75 mm
Group 1 for 20mm
Group 2 for 37

    @NBTamata Thanks! I like to put a lot of effort into my works and I’m glad to see it’s appreciated. @macca431 Thank you for noticing what I recommend to do to get better with details is to look at real world examples and try to copy it in game

    @Haydenator21 I love the attention to exterior detail! Sadly I am not good at it myself.
