@IceCraft Bruh have you seen what some people put out on this website?
.
I do my best to fill a specific niche in terms of build style, but overall I'm pretty meh as a builder.
@ChrisPy I'm extremely harsh on myself so that's why.
.
SS seemed to be okay with what I did but I still felt like crap. Should've just not uploaded in the first place
@MethaManAerospace I dunno lol
.
If you feel like fixing it up to fly the way you think it should be my guest. Might need to rebuild parts of the plane though
@GroBaleaze The prototype didn't have weapons until the final Su-27 was taking shape, at which point it was used as a testbed for missile compatibility. Don't feel too bad.
@ChiChiWerx Sheer dumb luck, probably. I thought it was too fast honestly, because I'd still be in the high 300-low 400kt range at 40% power while flying around 10k ft and lower
@ChiChiWerx No...not really. Stabilators just have Pitch+Trim but a range of +/- 5 degrees. That's not even funky trees except the first bit. Just XML tweaking.
.
Primary engines and the afterburners are just setup on activate 2. Big engines up front turn on from group 2 but have no power multiplier to simulate spool up (an idea I lifted from Asteroidbook's F-5E, so credit to them). No complex FT involved; just me actually trying to pay attention to more technical data than just size and weight dimensions. Getting good, to borrow internet kiddie language.
.
@DarkMarble1 Uhm...please don't do that lol but thanks; second Soviet bomber I've done and I ain't stopping here.
@DarkMarble1 You hurt me if you still think I give a crap about my stuff being taken and tweaked.
.
Hell I don't even care if people straight up steal my work because I know they'll get the bonk eventually lol I got other things in life to take seriously than this game
@WolfSpark All the research I did (which isn't much for a lot of these planes, to be fair) lists a pretty small wing area for the Tornado, and trying to stick to that made this thing pretty much unflyable with wings swept. So I stuck hidden wings in the fuselage.
.
I pretty much said flight performance had to take priority over technical accuracy
@Tang0five I see ANG F-15's fly over my house on semi-regular basis, so I have an idea of what you must've felt.
.
Did a little digging (AKA Wikipedia browsing), seems like the Tornados you saw were the IDS version. There's an RAF base located near that area that houses Typhoons now.
@DuneBoi Interviews with Tornado F3 pilots give a g-rating with tanks on as 2.5g? That turning circle is nearly as big as the main part of Wright of the main part of Yeager island! (Maybe not but I'm too lazy to properly test lol) That's just...so weird to think about.
@DarkMarble1 Tornado F3 did have auto wing sweep, but the British disabled it on operational fighters. Tried to get it to work but I kinda still suck at funky trees so oof.
.
Also that "British tea" (didn't even say what kind of English tea...shame on you) has far more class and restraint than that gross Freedom Barrel...ugh, I just gagged a little saying that lol
Just to point out what the heck Sky Crawlers is;
. Sky Crawlers involves ambiguously cloned/genetically engineered teenagers engaging in corporation-sponsored combat to avoid world nations fighting a real war amongst one another.
.
Yeah pretty f-worded up if you really think about it.
@WholeLottaBread Yeah no seriously this beats any trash I can come up with all day. At least you didn't do something stupid like have flaps and swing wing on the same VTOL control (my MiG-23 has both on VTOL down, which I thought was clever but really it's just not good idea.)
.
Well done. Only thing it could use is a neat paintjob.
Wait...a challenge that doesn't require an entirely new build but rather a modification of an existing build?
. Heresy :o
.
I mean I've already made a couple Player characters from AC and one animu protagonist, why the heck not?
.
Does the post need to be public or no? Cuz I don't exactly feel like cluttering my timeline of builds with repaints/reposts
@ChiChiWerx I'll keep that in mind. This is the first plane of this scale and type I'm working with, so any advice is welcome. I might use this more on large planes than my usual fighters, but thanks.
.
@Dima7274 Hmm...I debated using a larger multiplier. Should've gone with my gut then. Ah well, lessons for next time.

Lovely little 'Stang here :) Transition of radiator intake(?) into main fuselage is mwah

Looking good! Nice afterburner color
@Mrfoxus okie. iz fin
@asteroidbook345 No one got mad, just pointed out something I didn't think about. I'm the one that went on a giant guilt-trip.
@Mrfoxus Check out Wholelottabread's (Diloph) MiG-23. That's a good candidate too
@EnzoDiazUnofficial Honestly I kinda regret making this now
@AWESOMENESS360 okie I asked them on their 787 gold build. we'll see what happens
@AWESOMENESS360 Hence the bolded text at the top of the description.

Bummer. :/ Maybe I should take this down out of respect for them.

Many bombs, such kaboom. Very excellent. :)

To whoever is judging the challenge, If you want the blueprint I used I can send it on that one website
This is a quality memey post right here.

@Astro12 YES! THANK YOU! Someone else that knows this!

That's so freaking annoying to deal with.
@SimplyPlain Pssh, your work is FAR better than the garbage I put out, but thanks.
@DarkMarble1 Well those people aren't the ones who've made the base build, so...their loss l o l~

Excellent job, friend. :)
@SyntheticL can you not see them?
Good, clean, simple. Needs trim control but that's easy to add in myself. Beautifully well done at such a low part cost. :)
@InsertNameHere00 There's ways around it. I'm rebuilding the wings anyway so no big loss.
@RAF1 Thankies, friend. I dunno how many Tornados are on the site so I figured I'd give it a shot.
