Do I see two RWRs, one American and one Russian-like model? I hope they're just for the looks because if you actually made working RWR I will live in great fear of your truly immense power, as I don't think that's even possible right now and as such, would probably be wizardry.
This is amazing. Completely beyond words. The level of detail is mindblowing, and a Garmin suite? You guys are insane, lol. I wish I could upvote twice, one for your work and one for your pains.
Congrats on majoring in aerospace, by the way! It's a difficult road to walk as someone who decided to start treading it as well, but so far it's been a very interesting one.
@RareHeroicDancer Ah, that explains it then! Yeah, SP physics does some weird things. This is actually my first gear that works kinda alright, so I was a bit worried.
@RareHeroicDancer custom landing gear has always been a massive problem with all my builds. That is strange though, because I did carrier landings at much higher speeds in this thing, and with its predecessor, which uses the same gear, I could slam it into the runway even at 150-160 no problem.
Clocks are important indeed. This thing is looking amazing so far, I fear the part count but it'll be worth it for sure. The detail on this is mindblowing.
@Mustang51 Thanks! The Sea Hawk was indeed my main inspiration for this plane, especially on the nose/intakes and paint scheme. The wings and the rear section I just sketched on a napkin, lel.
Absolutely brilliant! I have some really old designs I never posted that were nuclear bombers, cruise missiles etc. using mods, now I realize I can probably revisit them one day and use a similar system to make them mod-free. Hats off to you for this amazing catch of using the cannon.
@Hedero Oh, I was fairly sure you were joking lel. And yeah, I'm not overly competitive either, I just do stuff for fun when I get an idea for it. In this one, for instance, I never expected to win, it was quite a surprise.
@Hedero Relax pal, I won't have the time to make it look or fly nearly as good as this one, that is, if I manage to finish it at all lel. I was inspired on this bird right here.
And by the way, your Panther is looking mighty fine. The competition is pretty fierce though, that one guy who did slotted dive brakes...
@Mustang51 Nah, it would probably be unfair to everyone else if you extended it because of one guy, lol. Now, if there are more people in this situation, yeah, might be worth looking into.
@Mustang51 So yeah, this is what I've been doing in my free time (so little of it lol) for the last week or so. I've got two ideas for that challenge of yours, I'll see if I can get something ready by then.
@wonkapilot The only reason I didn't was because it's 99,9% the same as the "Ghost Grey" scheme. The only difference, and this is easy to do yourself, is that two of the fuselage sections - one on each side - of the tail are painted orange. It's the semi-gloss orange in the color palette, it shouldn't be hard to find.
And thank you! That's exactly what I wanted to achieve with this bird.
This is beyond amazing. It's essentially an automated Norden in nearly every possible way. Hats off to you, good sir; Congratulations is not an emphatic enough word for this.
I almost missed this until I wondered why did I suddenly have 20 upvotes, lel. I wasn't expecting first place on this one with how I placed the engines, and the competition had some great builds.
Fantastic plane. It looks beautiful, it flies smooth and easily, the control surfaces behave realistically and it is overall just an absolute joy to fly. This definitely deserves more recognition.
Hot damn, this is amazingly well done! I didn't expect to find a T-25 of such quality around. It's a beautiful but rare bird, and one I've been wanting to see in SP for ages. Thank you for this piece!
@edufrs14 Yes, it was based on the Super Tucano indeed. I tried to make it a bit closer to what the original idea behind the Tucano was, which was initially to be a turboprop-powered version of the Neiva T-25 Universal. Glad to know you like it!
Hell yes man, seaplane fighters. The world needs more of these, it's a shame stuff like the Sea Dart never really went into service.
For some reason, this one gives me SeaMaster vibes (one of my favorite planes, especially on the looks department) but scaled down to fighter size. I like it.
@JonathanElst thank you! To be honest, the design was more of an accident, lol. I didn't want to mess with the fuselage shapes too much, so I decided to paint some of the fuselage sections blue and now we have a wrap-around canopy... Would be a terrible design choice IRL, lmao.
@Mustang51
So, this is the last of the planes I had in stock. Also my first custom cockpit/interior, albeit somewhat crude it's neat to fly around with. Might have come out a bit too agile though...

Top tier build right there. No other words left.

@TheCreatorandDestroyer99 Thanks man, that means a lot. I try my best to make my planes fun to fly around, I'm glad to see it's working out.

@Geebers @Mustang51 Thanks a bunch, guys!
Digital camouflage, one really nice custom cockpit and only around 500 parts for all that? You, sir, are a wizard.
Excellent taste in aircraft, good sir.

Now this is one fantastic-looking bird! Unique design, for sure.
The panelling work on this one is impressive. Paint scheme gives real Cold War vibes, excellent build.
@MarshallLewisAerospace @Mercyaircraftcorporation @Seeras Thanks a lot, guys!
@lastv801 Why not? As long as the credit system works (and I've attested it works quite well, lol)
Fantastic plane. It looks beautiful, it flies smooth and easily, the control surfaces behave realistically and it is overall just an absolute joy to fly. This definitely deserves more recognition.
Absolutely beautiful! It looks very Russian. Description is top-tier, too.
@Zanedavid Thankufully, that tiny fuel tank will run dry before you have to worry about that lmao
@Griffinthedragon It's a plane whose original design dates back to 1907, so... yeah, it pretty much is a deathtrap lol
@MAHADI Thanks! Tried out a few new techniques, took me some time but I like how it turned out.

Just tagging some people who I believe might be interested in this. If I was wrong, let me know, and my apologies.
This is an amazing bird! Those dive brakes, man.

@Jokowi Because it flies well, looks good, and does that while still being extremely simple. It's a really solid design.
Now that's a beautiful prop plane. Nice custom torpedo, too!
Hell yes man, seaplane fighters. The world needs more of these, it's a shame stuff like the Sea Dart never really went into service.

@Mustang51 That is not just okay, that is awesome! Try to find a way to send me some pics once you're done!
This is really well made especially on the fuselage department. I especially like how the nose's midsection line tapers gently.
is that Area 88 soundtrack I hear
Excellent taste, good sir
~the OVA's OST is better though~
YES
Thank you
This website needs more Tigersharks
F-20 needs more love
@Plane66373637 Yes, it is. Quite the simple one, though...
@CrashFighter05 I tried, lol
@mikoyanster Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
@blueangelproduction Mayhaps
@Trainzo That's a great honor, coming from you. Thanks! I'm glad you liked it.
@RailfanEthan @PositivePlanes @Mustang51 tagging some people from the teaser post who had shown interest, here it is!

Nice! Always great to see gliders around, we don't get many of them around here. Come to think of it, I should do a few more myself in the future.
Really nice bird! A bit too thick for my taste but the top-view profile hits all the right spots. Really smooth bird, I love it!
@Bife @Sadboye12 Thanks guys, glad you liked it!
