Prop fighter

0 Saybro  8.4 years ago

Check: Prop fighter 2.0 for an improved version of this plane.
A neat litle fighter that is very fast and turns pretty well and that lasts long on it's fuel load. It should be good for some races and it should also be able to hold it's own in dogfights even against jets. Pro's: - It's a fast (prop) plane - It has good acceleration (especially in a dive) - It lasts long on it's small fuel load (133gal) - It's a pretty light (prop) plane (4,076 lbs) - It has good energy retention - It's a small target to hit (with guns) -It's a stable plane (it doesn't tend to spin (out of control)) Cons: - Weak armament - No missles - It takes long to get the prop spinning from 0% throtle - Pulling loops at low altitude does tend to make you crash - Even though it turns pretty it it obviously still can get outturned. Engine configuration: - Engine power 1000HP - Blade diameter 130in - Blade thickness 3x - Blade count 6 - Blade style Cessna
