@MonsNotTheMonster It's not about the number of wheels in the front, it's about how the front gear is built, If you see how F-16s land IRL you'll notice how they always butter runway and keep the nose up for at least 30 seconds before it touches the runway, you never really see a Viper land like an F-18
@XM803ENJOYER46 you're right about the velocity having the same Kinetic energy, while a lightweight shell does maintain speed for longer, the tradeoff is that when it impacts, it probably wouldn't have enough weight to punch through, it would probably just shatter or ricochet, you could use the argument that the older M1 models did use a 105, and in some case you might be right that a 105 can still be applicable to today's Armor on Armor engagements, but given the advancements on Composite protection and add-on protection, you would for sure, need more than just 1 105 shell to completely knock out a modern MBT, In Armor school, You are instructed that if you are seen, don't be acquired, if you are acquired, don't be hit, and if you are hit, don't die. With that said, if you have to take more than 1 shot to at least disable a modern MBT, you would immediately be acquired and destroyed if you don't act fast enough and reposition, It takes only a second for a well trained crew on an abrams to spot something in the thermals and immediately acquire the source. Maybe this Chinese 105 has a great material for it's ammo? I don't know, But my point is, Kinetic Energy is one thing to a successful Kinetic Penetrator Round, but Weight and Material plays the largest role to a successful penetration, If you don't have enough momentum to punch through a thick steel of armor with added ERAs or NERAs, the survivability onion is what could save you, which means that things have gone bad if you had resort to it.
105mm for today's Generation of MBT is a bit sketchy, but i can see why they'd use it, 2 man crew, autoloaded gun, Probably maximizing the amount of munitions to carry? idk, but nonetheless, great build!
I've once seen the Lancer-R model of the MiG-21, surprisingly, even in the dawn of 5th gen fighters, the MiG-21 could still be a formidable opponent, then again we can say that to many of other 3rd gen fighters anyway.
The Chinese has something Similar to this, an APFSDS that penetrates like a Sabot, but has a chemical explosive filler that behaves like a HEAT-FS round, pretty gnarly stuff

The F-16 front landing gear will totally snap off on a few landings in a carrier.
absolutely fucking humongous
@XM803ENJOYER46 I enjoyed it bro, you we're amazing! take care!
@XM803ENJOYER46 I'm no fucking expert by the way I'm just having fun with the mental gymnastics of this, good one on you though, you're real good.

Very nice build!
ever considered revisiting this and giving it a functioning ramp and cockpit?
so basically Israeli Sabrah Light Tank meets HSTV-L, not bad
@lastcentury not everyone has a 3k dollar PC
a Pantsir Turret would be fitting
now there should be an ATGM carrier version, or SHORAD version, similar either to Italy's SIDAM-25s or Israeli Machbets
are we soon going to get Missile Lofting? and not just basic Missile tracking like we have in SP1?
Let's hope you don't fight in this thing at Venice
so basically you modernized a WW2 aircraft? not bad.
@PlaneFlightX That works too! very nice job! they're surprisingly optimized too!
do the steering wheels behave like In-Game yokes? can I hold onto them in VR? or are they purely static display?
@YarisHatchback don't mean to be an ass but that's kinda creepy lol, where exactly have you seen me before?
do we also have one for the wings themselves?
@xNotDumb sure pal, sure.
@xNotDumb made in ukraine- while they we're a soviet nation, should add that for clarification.

@Taboritsky how come?
One of the Sexiest MBTs out there
are mods allowed?
may i suggest the CRJ-900?
this is insanely fun in WT
About. Goddamn. Time! *T!!!
Is it possible to have a version with the Tracks 2 mod?
@Guh all is understood my friend, take care!
One of my favourites! Thanks for this, this is the best Bobcat in the website!
@Guh which part was i being racist
@SuperSuperTheSylph i hope
@Erc90F4RU "NATF-22" look it up and see for yourself
@Erc90F4RU it was once a real concept for the Navy, but Navy not wanting the same shit the Air Force has, it was inevitably cancelled.
"You know what? fuck you!" */Unpepsis your pepsi concorde
tonoight on bo'om gea
now all we need is a perfectly detailed F-111F to carry 20 of these
not a fan of the C929 at all, but nice build! love the cockpit!
@Ku i do get the gist of it, though what variables do i need to paste in? and where exactly do i get them?
Everyday we stray further away from god.

The absolute best Lynx Helo build in the website!
missed opportunity to call it a caterpillar
no way my first ever car in highschool! nice work!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, STRANGER! I wish you all the best in your present and future endeavors, i wish you and your family good health! take good care!!
i have the real thing, this build looks exactly like mine, great job!
@ThomasRoderick superhornets are actually really good air to air platforms lol just saying.
