Working on a video about my entry but I underestimated how much work goes into these kinds of things so it won’t be ready for another few days. Make sure to be on the lookout for it though!
I've finished reposting It so it has the correct photos and videos so its page actually looks good now. It also now includes some quality of life changes to make it better, like fixing the landing flaps and lowering the detach force on the hardpoints so that the rockets are more accurate and that the ordnance dosen't kill you if you decide to eject it while on the ground. These were changes made after, so WinsWings, you don't have to grade the repost because it has slight changes to the original.
Though I did a very good job on this aircraft, I believe I will have to repost it in the future due to inaccuracies.
The wingtip fuel tanks and under Wing fuel tanks have the wrong amount of fuel, which mean it's range is closer to 2 hours of flight time instead of the predicted 3 hours.
Due to the design constraints of the challenge, I was unable to add all of the features including the lights, refueling boom in the left wing, the cockpit, the landing gear bays, and the correct amount of rockets and their hardpoints.
I hope you guys have fun with what I've posted, but I will fix these issues in a future repost when possible.
@FalHartIndustries I may have forgotten to fix that when I posted. Sorry about that. Should be an easy fix, just find the rotator that is having the issue and flip it's direction. Have Fun!
@Graingy Honestly, it ran out of power one day and after it just wouldn't turn back on. Took it to several tech companies and they all said it was not worth fixing or that they didn't have the hard ware to fix it. Either I have to do it myself or buy a new one. So, yeah. Not fun.
@Graingy Tripped over Hans as I was climbing out of my Stug III during a War Thunder battle. This caused me to drop the useless HE shell that HANS APPARENTLY DECIDED TO BRING WITH HIM which I was in the process of removing DIRECTLY ONTO MY TABLET. Me and Hans are not on speaking terms at the moment. Currently looking for a new loader.
Mainly posted for new players that don't know funky trees or really complicated building techniques. Is adjustable and if it's not quite to your liking, you can rebuild/resize it for your builds. have fun with it!
@WinsWings Any update on those Awards? It's been a few days and I haven't noticed any jump in upvotes for my submission. If you are busy or forgot then this is just a friendly reminder. Or did you already do the upvotes and I just didn't notice? Not trying to be rude or anything I'm just trying to determine when those are going to be happening unless they already happened. CIAO!
Thank you guy's for all of the support! And thanks to @WinsWings for the challenge otherwise I would never have thought to make this aircraft. Have fun guys!
@WinsWings you are honestly right it is lacking in photos and I was on a trip recently so I wasn't able to add more. Thank you for the challenge it was extremely fun and helped me learn some new building techniques. I also think everyone else also did a wonderful job and I can't wait for next time!
@teddyone02 @Defalt1 @Bird6369 This plane has been serving in a military role since the 1950's and was retired in 2010. There is a lot of story about this plane and I mainly just copied and pasted the Wikipedia page because I don't want to type it myself. And you guys are right it IS very long and you don't have to read it if you don't want to. Have fun flying though!
@Su25guyuwu Possibly but I can't make any guarantees. Of course you can always try making it yourself and in fact, if you do, I'll immediately upvote it. Good luck!
My aircraft is really coming along! All I really need to do now is finish the interior and work out a few more funky trees and it'll be 100% good to go! (P.S. I'm intentionally not saying which aircraft I picked because I want it to be a surprise.)
okay so I made it so it can lock on with the input as SelectedTarget, but I can't seem to figure out how to limit it to lighting up at a specific distance. any ideas?
What command would you use if you wanted to have a light turn on when you have a target lock. Specifically a target lock on another aircraft or ground vehicle that you're attacking.
@LonelySea22 I've been lied to for my entire life by a falsehood of my own making.
THE MOVIE WAS MADE IN 1986!?!?

@WinsWings Thank you for hosting this challenge! We couldn't have done any of this without your influence and guidance, so thank you WinsWings!
+1@Gabriel747 Bro It's like 5:00 in the morning...

+1@Su25guyuwu I’m liking what I am seeing. Consider me subbed.
So far it’s purely just videos that I’ve used for the creation pages, but I hope to use it for more than just that. Hope you guys have fun!
@WinsWings OH, I thought that you meant you were going to upvote only my submission 12 times. Makes more sense. Thank you!

+1@UssrLENIN little late for the competition but I certainly will include it into my updated version. Thank you!

I really liked this and it really works well! Are you planning to add a cockpit?
@WinsWings Thanks
Still finishing up the final page for the aircraft but it is now available for download.

+116 days to go!
+1@ErraticFire17 Don't worry about it, you're doing fine and no you don't.
+1Really fun and definitely worth using. Does not like taking damage though and can be a little bit of an issue in ship to ship battles.
+1upvoting means I've officially joined right?
+1It's now official, this is my third most upvoted aircraft on the Simple Planes server.
thanks for all of the support!
