@AirCorp Ikr? XD
I still need to learn how to chrome the fuselage, otherwise it would be chromed. I also think the wings should be further back... but, oh, well
PS: I worked my hardest on this plane XD. Fully decorated and plated (not fully plated... but more so than usual), and sexy new landing gear. It can't really stall, so the maneuvers might be hard to pull off :/
Also, before anyone yells at me about "it's not realistic, or based on anything" or "it's not a jet fighter because of the propeller," here is my explanation:
Turboprops are considered jet engines because of their function and need for breathing air, therefore they are considered "jets" (look at the MiG I-250).
And I based this design on the Vultee XP-81, the F9F-8 Cougar, and the Messerschmitt Me 262.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy this aircraft!
@mikoyanster welp, I'm going to assume college has you bombarded, sorry to bother. I will make a plane that has 3 turbojets and 1 turboprop (based on the F9F-8 Cougar, Vultee XP-81, and 262 "Shwalbe"). After reading the plane ideas, I realized the Thunderstreak was a mixed propulsion craft. Also, the definition of a jet is a plane that is powered by a turbo engine (of which includes turboprops). Sorry to spam messages, I will have the plane posted soon!
UltraLight, AMAZING! This plane is beautiful. In fact, I was actually looking at the A500, but when I saw yours... I cannot outrank that. So, good work, lad
I pretty much mixed a few of the blueprints I found together. Supposed to be the Navy version, sorry I didn't add the folding wings.
Also, no decals XD
I still hope you enjoy! I am noticing that I am beginning to like replicas now...
@UltraLight I am joining this challenge in the simple category. But I have a question: can I use 2 engines instead of one? I could do 2 225 hpr engines on the high wing, or I could make something like the Cessna O-2 with the push-pull configuration
@NormalPioneer thank you! And yes, I'm sorry for going under part count. And the blue version of this was a copied one. Mine is original. I'm not trying to tattle, I just want to let you know
@Trumpthanosb you're fine! Sorry I replied so late. I just woke up.
To answer your question: I don't really know XD. This group is just my group that makes planes for SimplePlanes. So, I suppose that I do not know. You could join Moebius if you wanted to
Darn it! Sorry, this one isn't a successor for some reason :/
The screenshot was from earlier. I just liked it a lot, so I reused it. I hope you enjoy!
Nevermind! I am redoing it and am making one with a higher part count. Sorry for the inconvenience
@KangaKangaTheRoo
This is a very simple design, so it is... erm... very low in part count XD
this was a fun challenge, thank you for it
@Astro12 yay!
I shall do this!

@rexzion :(
Aww, thanks @Cyan!
Oh! I almost forgot.
Huge thanks to @Cyan for creating my emblems (link here: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/sVQz26/THI-Emblems)

309 parts intensifies
:O 332 upvotes intensifies
LMAO

Thanks! @Oceanview
Sorry, lads, but I stupidly joined 4 challenges and then created this, and now life is crazy :/. I am cancelling this until further notice

Is it okay if I participate? I promise to make the part count. And further more, are mixed propulsion craft allowed? (like the MiG I-250 or XP-81)

@NormalPioneer XD
Real plane size:
Wingspan: 34'6"
Length: 40'11"
Height: 12'3.5"
Weight (empty): 11,483 ibs
Darn it! The cockpit is waaaayyy too far backwards

WHYYYYYYYYY
I've never done it before... but I think I could do something!
@lilsniper334 I'm sorry, but I do not think I will be able to compete
@BOOMNTV I don't usually set one until a few people have joined. As of right now, December 15th
Thanks! @Mic56qp
@MikoyanGorevich21 not yet
@TrojanAircraftSystems oh, nice! And thank you for joining
@Trumpthanosb ?
@UltraLight okay, cool! Thank you
Have fun!
@UltraLight wait... could both the engines be 450?
Sorry to say, lad, but I do not think that this counts as a bizarre weapon. Other than that though, amazing creation!

@KnightOfRen thanks!
Also, it may go a tad bit faster than I thought it would at 25,000 feet...
I used the base cockpit because it actually has a striking resemblance to the real one
@mikoyanster thank you for the Sidewinders! I'm sorry I didn't ask for your permission, but I used it on this plane
PS: this plane ended up being almost exactly 1:1.15 ratio. It's not an exact replica, but it is still very realistic
@KnightOfRen this is my entry! I hope you enjoy it

@Trumpthanosb thank you as well
@Trumpthanosb what group? And no problem!
@Trumpthanosb lol, no problemo. You now have 30 points which allows you to upvote people
But I completely agree with you. Music is what shows emotions through noises. Absolutely beautiful
BEAUTIFULLLL
