@Smasher Actually, it's a Vespa scooter with an American 75mm M20 recoilless rifle. Known as the Vespa 150 TAP, it was for a French Army contract for paratroopers (hence TAP, or Troupes Aero Portees) as a cheap, airmobile prime mover for a 75mm recoilless rifle. It was designed to be dismounted from the vehicle, fixed onto a tripod, and then fired.
The Vespas were made in France by ACMA, who built them under license.
Yes indeed. But in this RP (whose start year is 1947), I will have access to all my favorite Cold War jets (F-4, F-5) and will use them with effectiveness.
The F-4 will be employed as a fighter-bomber due to greater payload, where the F-5 will be employed as a dedicated air superiority fighter due to its superior agility, able to take on types such as the F-14 and F-15 in air combat. @Spikerya
@Dllama4 Is a good SMG and probably is a better gun (actual mechanical safety vs. a cutout in the charging handle slide, wooden buttstock, actual machining beyond the barrel and breech-face), but we feel the M9 submachine gun is a perfectly adequate weapon.
Also, we are restarting the RP at 1947. However, the tech used here fits that perfectly, as is the M9 submachine gun.
@Mellons Cool!
Turn the Pummeler into paper plane. @Mellons
The Pummeler. Any one of them.

M6A4 uses 120mm cannon. @MadBomber
Cool! I may have to trial this against the M6A4.
@HackingAnonymous I mean to say "prop" engines.
@EEVEEK1NG Master the use of fuselage blocks. The resizable ones. It'll look much better and be easier to work with.
Lol @Verterium
It's ad hominem.
Unfortunately, I was unable to respond to Sniper16's post due to him blocking me.
However, I can say that I am a determined individual. I want something, I work to getting it.
I also enjoy writing and discussions. Which means I love to bend words. I'm also considering something in law.
His rant is filled with logical fallacies too.
Lovely project! However, I think I can help improve your designs.
I have done something like this, except the engines came in different power multipliers and did not include prop engines.
@PlanesOfOld They're basically the same plane.
Martin made some Canberras.
@PINK Oh.
I stated that it couldn't pivot because of the in-game properties. (The M6 can pivot).
@PINK I believe that some of its in-game properties should match its RP properties, such as maneuverability and in some cases, mobility.
I can release a "speed governed wheels" pack.
@Smasher Arguing?
I prefer the term "discussion."
And "troll" often refers to pranksters of the web who is deliberately attempting to make someone angry.
@PINK @MadBomber Here is what I think of the Type 47.
There is enough moderators with edititis that if a troll decides to come along, their work will be smite rather quickly. @Smasher
@EEVEEK1NG Sure! And thanks!
@bjac0 Thanks!
@MadBomber I'm actually updating the M6A1 to the M6A3.
@MadBomber Sure! But know that we will be very objective with this thing.
@Smasher You realize the 90mm M1/M2/M3 is a very heavy cannon, right?
Also, I think this is what you are talking about. All the details here.
@Smasher What expertise did they have?
Also, the M20 served in WWII, albeit in the later stages.
This.

Would you like some of our tanks?
@AdrianFlyingAce That's basically an artillery piece.
I don't think 125mm caliber guns were made yet.
A more appropriate cannon would be a 100mm gun.
This is completely legal. You can still build stuff to commemorate milestones in SP.

Np! Mind if I do a repaint of the type? @Insertname
Nice little plane!
Permission to modify?
Interesting choice.
"It's high noon!" -McCree, moments before play of the game.
An extra $15k pere machine produced.
The tank costs $200k to make, in 1947 dollars.
@Alix451
@Spikerya Why not?
Permission to modify?
@jamesPLANESii That was what Puff was though.
A C-47 (which is basically a DC-3) with miniguns facing out the left windows, in USAF or VNAF livery.
Can I turn this into Puff the Magic Dragon? The one with miniguns? @jamesPLANESii
Its good, but I feel it is too easy to put into irrecoverable flat spin without tail.

Very expensive compared to our SMG.
