Republic F-105D Thunderchief

120k ACEPILOT109  4.1 years ago

This is a remake of my well known F-105 which was my first real popular airplane. Lots of fun making another F-105 and I actually made it on iOS but I’m posting it on my PC so I can make it look nice. As always, it’s well tested and works great! The F-105 I posted was 1.1 years ago! I still remember making. Like it was yesterday! This new F-105 has fully moving control surfaces flaps and lights. Its not my most long build but for sure it was one of the most complicated to plan out. And I made the plane on iOS!

The inspiration to make another one came from me player a game called Gunship III, bet some of y’all have seen me on there. My user is Capt. John or Sandy. I call myself Sandy when playing on MiG team. But yeah, that’s why I wanted it! Also, I acutely am picking up wing making techniques, thanks Tully for linking that to someone else that I then looked at and realized it’s not hard to build good wings. But wow it was a pain to panel the trailing edge but I had a lot of time so I got it. Well thanks if you read this!

Activation Group 1 = Navigation Lights
Activation Group 2 = Anti-Collision Lights
Activation Group 3 = Landing Lights
Activation Group 4 = Arm Weapons
Activation Group 5 = Refueling Boom
Activation Group 6 = Drag Chute
Activation Group 7 = Jettison Everything
Activation Group 8 = Opening Nose Cone

Countermeasures = Chaff (32)
VTOL = Flaps
Trim = Trim
Gear = Gear
Normal Flight Controls

The aircraft has amazing agility, only when flying fast. It gets nose heavy at low speed so be sure to use flaps and the chute so you can land in an orderly manner. Its also pretty strong, because of the way it has two fuselages (for the paint scheme) so it hold itself pretty well.

This aircraft is very well armed, with two Guardian air to air missiles and six scaled down Boom-50s. Also, it has a cannon on the nose witch is great for strafing enemy targets. Sorry, there’s no napalm!

    The only problem is that it has no air brake, otherwise, it’s excellent

    Hey that's fine dude. Nonetheless your aircraft looks good anyways. And I actually think that the functionality of the nose cone opening makes up for it. @ACEPILOT109
