Oh I see it. I was trying to export my F-36 which is about 600 parts and it didn't work, but when I exported the Enemy AI plane which is 23 parts, it worked. Must be a part limit or complexity limit to exporting. Anyways thanks!
I kind of have a taste for all genres of music (except rap and hip hop) but I usually listen to electronic music (trance, techno, 80's synthewave, hardbass, etc.), country music, hard rock/metal, instrumental/orchestral, and Contemporary Christian music.
I'm actually very happy the Boeing/Saab bid won because it means the St. Louis plant will remain open well into the future. The Boeing MQ-25 will also be built in St. Louis. The T-X and MQ-25 were major wins for Boeing.
It would have been hilarious if the T-100 won, because it's based off the M-346 and the M-346 is basically a westernized Yak-130.
So the USAF and the Russian Air Force would pretty much have been flying the same designs as trainers. XD
@CptJacobson
I think it's pretty neat. You definitely improved it's top speed and handling, although like with all my early designs, it's still very prone to nosing over on the ground.
@Tessemi
To be honest I was actually kind of disappointed with the weak turnout this challenge got considering it was from high-ranking user such as yourself. I'm still working on my entry and it will probably be submitted a day or two before the due date, so don't cancel the challenge.
Well your in luck, Rainier currently has an export 5th/6th gen fighter currently in development (it's actually for Tessemi's challenge) but I guess I'll submit it to this one as well. :)
Prepare to be blown out of the water fellow competitors. :^)
LEMMiNO did a pretty good video talking about a couple of interesting and fairly credible & believable UFO reports. The UFO phenomenon is most definitely real IMO, especially considering the US has been secretly running an official "Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program", and the Navy has UFO footage from one of their F/A-18's off the coast of SoCal.
Interesting read that could possibly explain black triangles. I think they are some experimental military platform like a "stealth blimp" for some intel. gathering or recon role.
@CptJacobson
Sure I guess. This Nordan company of mine no longer exists as the RP it was part of is dead, and I now run with a new company of mine called "Rainier Aerospace", so all my old designs under Nordan or PAC are pretty much up for grabs for others to improve or barrow the design, just give me credit and don't avoid the autocredit system.
@BoeyingOfficial
No doubt about it the L-1011 is one of Lockheed's finest creations, but... Can it go Mach 3 rendering it nearly invincible and fight communists without any weapons WHILE being made out of soviet Titanium?
My take on F-35:
Cool plane, pioneered lots of bleeding edge ground breaking technologies that can be applied to other fighters, maneuvers pretty well (like a mix between the F-16 & F/A-18), utilizes good stealth techniques that don't require intensive maintenance or care like the F-22 or B-2 (uses "baked-in" stealth coatings), and it's going to be a great fighter. HOWEVER, the F-35 Program as a whole suffered greatly from major cost overruns, incredibly poor management, suffered a few major flaws and required a few redesigns on some systems, and it still has a few issues. It's also gotten to the point where too much money has been spent on the program to cancel it altogether (too big to kill). Also, it's going to keep L.M.'s pockets rich until 2075, which is probably why L.M. is now getting the least amount of contracts from the US Gov. which are mainly giving them to Boeing and N.G.. F-35 is a great plane IMHO, but I think the JSF Program should have NEVER been pursued in the first place. Just build separately designed fighters for each branch's needs.
While flaps can already be achieved in SimplePlanes (although you need overload xml editor to edit some of it's properties) I definitely think they should come in the base game.
@BlackhattAircraft
Nope, the F-35 is replacing the F-16, F/A-18, AV-8B, and most likely the A-10 as well. The USAF has launched a new fighter jet program "F-X" for an F-22 replacement.
@BlackhattAircraft
Boeing's actually re-manufacturing A-10 wings to extend their useful life time and keep A-10's flying. IMHO, Boeing should also upgrade the A-10's avionics and give it more powerful turbofan engines to make it more modern and up to speed.

Sadly that won’t get 147 upvotes because half of the website has moved to SR2

I can't board the hype train anytime soon. Although I'm totally fine sticking with SP for now.
@Texasfam04
Thanks!
@Rhinower7aeronautics
Eh, not really. How complex is this logo? If it's a simple roundel I may do it.
happy B-day!
Not sure you should be grabbing everyone's attention like this but if I have time, I'll see what I can do.
This fix seems a little..... suspicious....
@CptJacobson
Nice!
@CptJacobson
Sure go right ahead!

It's a giant penguin, but I can see how bad that sounds...
I'm going to dress up as a Cessna 172.
(jk I don't celebrate Halloween lol)
Oh yippee another competition I can submit my new fighter for! Although I'll need to strip it's instruments (Gestour's mod).
That exhaust looks freaking sick. It looks like your using machine guns, or mini-explosions for the effect, or maybe both.
germany lost to south korea in the world cup
@ForeverPie
Been there done that.
@aircraftarsenal123
Same. I prefer the american muscle and performance cars over European exotic super cars.
Looks cool and all but it blows up whenever I start, even in the air. Must be some parts & weapons colliding.
@RenxBlake
Insta? As in Instagram? I don't have Instagram. Although I do have YT.

Eh, I don't really want Nordan back. You can have the design but use a different name and credit me.
Beautiful, absolutely beautiful!
@Irobert55
Cause black triangles have always been reported as black & usually spotted at night.
