Heinkel He-162a Volksjager

26.0k TheGuyYouMightKnow  7.3 years ago

The Volksjager was Germany's attempt at a cheap and easy to build jet fighter and was known for its wings ripping off during landings due to a lack of materials to properly attach them

Unfortunately I wasn't able to make the guns functional as they were too close to the fuselage, if there's a way to way to get guns to function in that position please let me know, I tried quite a few different ways of getting them there and it only ever blew up so I went with the next best thing which is just fake guns.

    @ESIOTROT121 I used Shift+Sa and the Fine Tuner mod to lower the part until it stopped flashing, it's trial and error
