@Type2volkswagen Thanks for that, that flipping rotator has had zero on deactivate added so many times and it was working fine just before i posted this build, there are definately gremlins in the system for that. No idea what happened on the nose wheel either. Well spotted and thanks. Fixed build here
@Trainzo I know, that was going to be my other name for it but then I ended up adding letters for Dug and it was ground attack afterall =) Thanks for your upvotes and comments of late, im glad you are liking my builds.
@TheNewSPplayer thanks for the heads up, not impressed, my build without credit or successor... I don't mind people using / altering my builds but not keen on passing off my builds as their own
@crazyplaness fair enough, thanks for replying. Am i right in assuming that all though the comments are locked people can still submit a comment (which is not shown) hence i still get email notifications for them?
@YarisSedan Ah, ok, pity, i thought i was missing comments from people about the build... Thanks for letting me know though, i hadnt seen any of that (barring one person telling me that politics shouldnt be involved in SP while inferring it was...)
@crazyplaness morning, im just wondering if you know why I can't see who upvotes or any comments on my F-25 build? I still get email notifications that comments are being posted though...
@Boeing727200F no idea, i didnt see one, but then my posts seem to be losing comments and all sorts at present (i had a notification of 22 comments on a build, when i went on all comments were gone...)
@VarisOnAviation it's posts like yours that anoy me, no upvotes for the build, no comment about the build, just post some political rubbish while pretending the post isn't political at all. If your not commenting about the game / build just don't bother.
@TheCommentaryGuy I haven't created a concealed config, the only bay would have been where the drop tank is located, this was due to the size of the undercarriage bays etc. I can add one later if I create a Mk2.
@GalaxiesDontSlleep Thanks for the upvote and comment. To answer your queries; i didnt feel RAM was necessary as it wasnt designed as 100% stealth (no internal bays, exhaust shape etc.) and I fancied doing a camo scheme for a change. Its more of a reduced radar cross section design than full stealth. Planform alignment was more of a design choice (fluke) than intentional to meet stealth requirements, i just fancied using a similar layout to the YF-23 and it worked well with the fuselage etc.
@Gs Yeah, i started with imggur(i think thats what it was called), then discord, then steam, they all seem to have a shelf life and then all the links break afterwards (apart from Steam which is just a ballache to use)...
@AWESOMENESS360 Thanks for your feedback, im glad you liked the build, it was fun (if hard work) with all those angles etc. In regards to the gun i thought about adding one but then thought it could be added as a pod as per the F4 etc. (i can do a MKII with a gun etc no problem). What in particular didnt you like about the missiles? I tried to make them reasonable for the period (80s-90s), the Harms were designed for anti radar (of which SP doesnt have any) so i just made it so that 2 were needed per destroyer, the AIM 54 Phoenix work against aircraft reasonably well, the sidewinders have a bit of a struggle sometimes staying aquired but im pretty sure they are like that in real life? Any feedback is good for me as i can add it to the next build / update this one.
@Randomplayer The pics for most of my stuff is disapearing yet the links are still working??? No idea whats going on here. edit: apparently discord file links only last 24 hours now so everything i have posted since imgur started messing up and i moved to discord is now lost...
@MAHADI Thanks. It is armed though, it has 6no cannon in the nose? I didnt put anything in the weapons bay as per real life aircraft the load out is mission dependent and i was using this as a fighter primarily (but like the mosquito it has a weapons bay if required).
@EternalDarkness @SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore @5cmPak38aufPzKpfwIISfl901 thanks for the upvotes and comments guys. I had fun with this build, still not got much time for SP but I'm still building :)
@Tridentgamer This build is over 5years old, im onto my third computer since i made this, i have no idea why the armed varients have disappeared and unfortunately due to the age of the build i have no way of getting them back.
@growthstarboard You are not incorrect but if you are clever and use the triangle method for the tapering wing section you can end up with the trailing edge at a constant depth and then this method still works (its what i do on 99% of my builds)
@StockPlanesRemastered thanks for the comment. I can appreciate that seaplanes of the era were fast (sneider trophy etc) but I can't help but think that the floats with all their drag and weight probably ended up being the limiting factor in top speeds. Glad you liked this one though.
@Trainzo thanks, thanks also for your continued support, comments and upvotes.
@TheHaggisBasher hey i do make some realistic builds =) Check out my WW1 style aircraft for example.
@Type2volkswagen Thanks for that, that flipping rotator has had zero on deactivate added so many times and it was working fine just before i posted this build, there are definately gremlins in the system for that.

@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore what do you mean? It's not short.
@DCSplanepro12 cool, thanks 😎
@Trainzo I know, that was going to be my other name for it but then I ended up adding letters for Dug and it was ground attack afterall =) Thanks for your upvotes and comments of late, im glad you are liking my builds.
@florky it's cool isn't it, was a fun little build
@crazyplaness Any idea why my last two builds have been removed by a mod?
@Boeing727200F ah OK, I still get email notifications on it though :)
@Boeing727200F I received a notification that you commented on my other build but the comments are locked so I can't see it / them
@TheNewSPplayer thanks for the heads up, not impressed, my build without credit or successor... I don't mind people using / altering my builds but not keen on passing off my builds as their own
@crazyplaness Ah ok, thanks for clarifying that, ill just ignore the notifications for that build then (ps thanks for the compliment about the build).
@crazyplaness fair enough, thanks for replying. Am i right in assuming that all though the comments are locked people can still submit a comment (which is not shown) hence i still get email notifications for them?

@WinsWings thanks for the spotlight, its been a while since ive had a spotlight =)

@TheCommentaryGuy There arent any, hardpoint mounts only.
@Liensis @Trainzo thanks for your comments and upvotes, much appreciated.
@florky Wouldnt that just make it a 2 seat F35 though... =)
@Gs Fair comment, i do get the odd build / post that gets a couple of odd upvotes seemingly forever but most do die after a few days/weeks.
@Gs Yeah, i started with imggur(i think thats what it was called), then discord, then steam, they all seem to have a shelf life and then all the links break afterwards (apart from Steam which is just a ballache to use)...
@Gs Thanks =) I do struggle with screenshots, i used to rely on Discord for extras in the text to get a better impression of the build.
@AWESOMENESS360 Thanks for your feedback, im glad you liked the build, it was fun (if hard work) with all those angles etc. In regards to the gun i thought about adding one but then thought it could be added as a pod as per the F4 etc. (i can do a MKII with a gun etc no problem).

@NoahthemanLOL yeah, that was kind if the idea, I like to use bits and pieces of different aircraft to make new designs 😀
Thanks All. Steam will suffice for now but good to know i have options.
@Randomplayer Fixed. I substituted a few aircraft examples as it was easier than finding the original image. Thanks for pointing all this out.
@Randomplayer I'll give it a go later, I'll update this post first and let you know.

@Tanglednebula19 thanks, it's certainly one of my better builds, enjoy.
@Ace117 yeah, fun to return the fighter into the bay though :)
@EternalDarkness @SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore @5cmPak38aufPzKpfwIISfl901 thanks for the upvotes and comments guys. I had fun with this build, still not got much time for SP but I'm still building :)

@Blueshift thanks :)
@growthstarboard heres an example of what i mentioned about the trailing edge method.
@growthstarboard You are not incorrect but if you are clever and use the triangle method for the tapering wing section you can end up with the trailing edge at a constant depth and then this method still works (its what i do on 99% of my builds)
@WisconsinStatePolice lol, what does that mean?
@StockPlanesRemastered thanks for the comment. I can appreciate that seaplanes of the era were fast (sneider trophy etc) but I can't help but think that the floats with all their drag and weight probably ended up being the limiting factor in top speeds. Glad you liked this one though.
@AshdenpawTG22 ? Have you read the introduction?
@Tang0five Thanks =) I was happy with the way it turned out, that camo caused me some headaches along with the wing shape mind...
@Brayden1981 not sure which build you wanted tagging on out of the 3 in my forum post so here you go.
@Randomplayer released =) finally got there.
@Brayden1981 help yourself then, just make sure it's not just a recolour or admins might remove it :)
@Brayden1981 what did you have in mind?
@ReinMcDeer it helps, trust me :) only now I have to remake all my stardard bits lol
Looks nice but why only 1 photo (pixelated) and no description?
