Auto Credit Based on M1Garand's Naval Challenge!
one day I thought... just how efficient can I build a Sukhoi that still looks like a Sukhoi and still handles like a Sukhoi
Before:

After:

So, how did I manage to get this thing to only 18 parts and still have a 3D thrust vectoring
1. One of the rudders is a cockpit part

2. Cutting fuselage to save every part possible

3. VTOL nozzle because:
- Needs 1 less intake
- Removes the need for a yaw rotator because the VTOL nozzle can rotate by itself
- has built in afterburner

This thing took a bit of thinking to make so...
Drop an upvote :)

Also, if y'all know how to make this even lower in part count while having the same level of maneuverability and still looking like a Sukhoi, let me know
Mobile Friendly version when?
@crazyplaness using joystick base is crazy, i would've never thought that is even possible🔥
@MinutesTanker I was able to reduce the part count to 16 by changing the engines (it looks worse now but still works), and by swapping a wing with a fuselage
16 part
@NavalGunnery might try that thx
this sukhoi lookin low poly ahh 😭
Sukhoi.7z
@MinutesTanker hm, instead of using 2 more wings for the base of the main wings, use a single fuselage piece, and rebalance the lift via adjusting the outer main wing part's liftScale to make up for the lost lift from that part, replace the main fuselage with an Inlet part, that way you can instead use the inlet's Trim Color to black which would be the canopy.
PS1 quality Sukhoi Flanker be like:
@MASSIKTHEPLANEMAKER WTF is bro's profile pic lmaoooo
Yo minutes I like your videos can you sub to me
Bro it's look like low poly aircraft
@MinutesTanker great
@avDude4 um yes, im gonna release that one later
Bro this is one of those videogame assets that don't render well when you are far away , it looks so cool and goofy
And you added a sword I saw?
Looks like you can make it out of paper
Man that cockpit threw me offguard
SUKHOI GO BRRRRRRRRRRRRR
