I wish I said this earlier, but this is a very nice plane for this challenge, I like the lore of how you gave a third generation jet better electronics to compete with 80's jets. This is a very capable aircraft that should be able to keep things smooth sailing until I can post my plane (which is taking longer than expected due to the cockpit(, but I'm rambling a bit here. VERY NICE PLANE!!!
I’m finished with the airframe of my plane, I still need to do the cockpit though. BTW, this plane can carry A LOT of weapons, so operations where lots of weapons are required shouldn’t be a problem.
Can I change the rate of fire of the gun, I feel that it’s too slow as I’ve tried getting gun kills with it, but it’s low rate of fire often results in the plane flying between the bullets.
@NARGII
Thanks, getting the shape for this bomber was a huge pain at times, along with the cockpit work, seeing as I couldn't mirror the whole plane due to part connection issues. I'm glad that you like this plane.
@StugnaATGM
Can we please do a challenge involving 4th gen fighters, my personal favorite of your challenges to participate in was the second war challenge (against snowstone) where we got to build jets with missiles.
I know the challenge doesn't have a bomber component to it, but I was already mostly done with this plane by the time I realized this, so sorry for violating the rules.
@SIRCOMMANDER031
Yeah, I was thinking that for the war effort, best to re-use airframes as often as possible so that we don't use up resources building a new plane. I figured that my plane could easily transition to ground attack now that fighters are more advanced than it.
@StugnaATGM
I haven't commented or done much in a while, especially with this challenge, but can you relegate my (only) entry to be a CAS/Ground attack aircraft, as it probably can't match jet fighters that the enemy are now producing.
@NARGII
I'm currently working on a stealth (ish, I'm not an expert on making stealth aircraft or what makes a stealth aircraft stealthy) bomber, though I don't know how long it will take for me to complete and release as I'm in college right now.
@Yourlocalhuman
Do we still have an aircraft carrier in service right now? cause my only aircraft in the challenge so far is carrier based, so it would be a little humiliating if there isn’t a carrier for an aircraft designed to operate off of one.
To all those out there who follow me and upvote my builds, I'm letting you know now that I will be starting College very soon and I don't know how active I will be on the website, or how often I will be playing the game from here on out.
@NARGII
Upload the photos if you want, I personally enjoyed the newsreal type stuff that happened. Plus I probably missed some as I am not able to watch this challenge 24/7.
@NARGII
I'll take the 1 spotlight, and the 10 upvotes. I honestly wasn't expecting to win as I only made two airframes for the challenge (I don't really count the F-17E as it's the same airframe with a different cockpit). Anyways, I really enjoyed being a part of this challenge.
@NARGII
I was wondering if you could retire my original F-17 (the F-17E will remain in service) as it has been in service for 40 years, and is basically at the end of its service life.
Operation Fencer II
Basically the same as the original operation Fencer, only there are more pairs of aircraft involved, 5 pairs of F-17E's and 5 pairs of F-21's. They will once again be enforcing a no fly zone and shoot down anything that comes into the air, provided that the enemy air defenses are fully taken out prior by a squadron of F-21's that will fly in prior to the operation and take out enemy air defenses.
@Walvis
It's ok, take all the time that you need. Don't feel pressured to prioritize this stream over working and studying.

@MobileGamer21
OOF, it really sucks when the game doesn't let you test the plane properly.
@StugnaATGM
Can you change the speed limit for aircraft?
The Mach 1.5 speed limit is very limiting.
What am I looking at?!?!?!?!?
+1Amazing, that cockpit looks like it took a while.
@NARGII
+1Thanks, getting the shape for this bomber was a huge pain at times, along with the cockpit work, seeing as I couldn't mirror the whole plane due to part connection issues. I'm glad that you like this plane.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, I think the Mach 1.5 speed limit is too slow.
@StugnaATGM
Under what classification do rocket pods fall under?
Also, I feel like the Mach 1.5 speed limit is a bit too low.
@MobileGamer21
I honestly don't care who wins, I just want to see other people's creations on stream.
@Levi124
Turn it into a boat
@Levi124
The vertical stabilizer looks like a sail on a sail boat.
How many guns do you want?
Levi124: yes
@SIRCOMMANDER031
Watch him earn platinum from his next war challenge.
@NARGII
+1It's been posted, hope you like it.
@StugnaATGM
I look forward to it!

Oh its beautiful!
+2I know the challenge doesn't have a bomber component to it, but I was already mostly done with this plane by the time I realized this, so sorry for violating the rules.
I’ve been waiting forever, I hope the stream/video happens soon. It’s something I’m looking forward to.
Dammit, we lost.
@StugnaATGM
Oh screw it, send whatever I have to attack ground targets so that hopefully they can’t use nukes.
YOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
+1This is a sick trailer. The plane is awesome by the way.

@SIRCOMMANDER031
This is why I wish SimplePlanes had a WWII fleet carrier in the game, rather than just USS Tiny and USS Tiny 2.
I was however able to take off from USS Tiny with my airplane.

@Lifewald
+1Here’s one more upvote to get you to GOLD, this is an amazing plane.
@Bird6369
More like obscenely expensive variant, the F-111 served as an interdictor/tactical bomber in the Air Force.
Lots of unique entries into this challenge, can’t wait to see the livestream/video.
@MrCOPTY
I honestly didn’t think of it like that, I guess the nose looked more like an enlarged F-111 nose than I thought.
Remastered version available now.
@Ren
yeah, that sometimes happens with me.
@Ren
Oh, I didn't know that. I like your sense of humor though.
@Ren
Dammit, I got rickrolled
Also, the players reported for harassment look, to me at least, that they're multiple accounts from the same person.
Maybe we could do something like the Gulf War? I don’t know, it’s just a thought.
Oooh 😮
+1A stealth bomber!
@NARGII
+2Upload the photos if you want, I personally enjoyed the newsreal type stuff that happened. Plus I probably missed some as I am not able to watch this challenge 24/7.

+1Yes, it provides a real challenge to us builders participating in the challenge, and encourages us to put more effort into builds.
