@RamboJutter Well, to qualify as a jet you need to have the engine exhaust providing some significant amount of thrust...
Also, given its supposed to be an upgrade to a build of your own, when will we see the "original" F4?
Which F4? The wings and the cockpit belong to an F4U Corsair, but the fuselage seems to belong to a F4F Wildcat... Also, that's no jet engine, its just a turboprop.
@Insmallsky Well, to be exact, I used to play that game, now I lost interest (my reflexes being nigh-nonexistent have something to do with it). That said, I do love the designs of the Tyrant from the game.
@WarHawk95 Soooo... basically, this thing is a B-17G with an early-war ventral turret, a shorter cockpit with a glass top and without the radio operator's gun?
Not bad... Although I just have to point out that perhaps turning on Aircraft Reflection when making screenshots would make the screenshots look better.
Im sorry if it's not as smooth aerodynamically You serious? I mean this is just awesome - especially so as you aren't even familiar with the game, as stated in your description of this build.
Is this an original design? Anyways, great build as always!
Also, I just HAVE to say that after seeing that weird exchange between you and FairFireFight, I'm.... at least to say, a bit... curious on why you suddenly went full-on defensive after what seemed to be an obvious joke/meme (well, at least to me, that is). Is it a habit formed after people started nitpicking on your earlier SR-71 inspired builds?
@TheFantasticTyphoon This is how the GAU-8 Avenger came to Earth!
"... with great thanks to our exterrestrial allies who generously bestowed us with the knowledge of their Avenger rotary cannons, which we soon designed a plane around as a means to wield its unrivaled firepower and unleash it upon our enemies."
@DeidaraEnterprises Now that's not very reassuring, given that this is supposed to be a main battle tank, not a mobile wall (unlike the British infantry tanks in earlier WWII)...
@Foxway Well, as the bomb contains fuselage parts (among many other things), the destroyers assume that you have just damaged yourself with the explosion (or perhaps just ejected and the parts accidentally blew up the carrier). The only time they WILL shoot you is when you damaged them or the carriers with a stock weapon.
@SnoWFLakE0s I thought people must feel dissatisfied using chaffs and flares for smoke grenades.
The problem? Chaff and flare actually keep missiles away, this thing don't. Real smoke grenades can also keep certain types of anti-tank missiles away, usually by obscuring its or its operator's line-of-sight.
@Squirrel So that why. Cool!
Nice build... But which part of this is angelic? I mean dragons are cool, but they are no angels.
Soooo... Basically a dieselpunk version of the P-38?
Is she riding the broom side-saddle?
@ChisP Yup, the wings of the Canberra, the nose of the Bear.
@belugasub disabling aircraft collision does not allow your own guns to shoot through your own fuselage blocks, IIRC...
Cool! That said... how come did you NOT chop your own tails off with that turret?
@RamboJutter Well, to qualify as a jet you need to have the engine exhaust providing some significant amount of thrust...
Also, given its supposed to be an upgrade to a build of your own, when will we see the "original" F4?
@GenrichTitov I mean, I was trying that out on my own a while ago, primarily making cluster bombs...
Which F4? The wings and the cockpit belong to an F4U Corsair, but the fuselage seems to belong to a F4F Wildcat... Also, that's no jet engine, its just a turboprop.
Hmmmmm.... Those round corners?
+1@ND40X Well, given this is basically an "Osprey" variant for the PA-28 "Cherokee", I just decided to call it "Cherosprey"
Cherosprey?
@darthschmuck52 The train being way off the track...
What happened in the screenshot?
+1What the f**k is this? Bombardiers, to your stations! We have worms to kill!

Which franchise is this from?
Holy....
Dreadnought?
+1Cat! You're back!
Nice to see another build from ya, Spefy!
+1@GeneralOliverVonBismarck Which song is that?
@NANOMAN I have to say that perhaps using a permalink would make it easier to see where the comment is...
@WarHawk95 Soooo... basically, this thing is a B-17G with an early-war ventral turret, a shorter cockpit with a glass top and without the radio operator's gun?
+3First!
@sixer I assume the missing gun you mentioned is the radio operator's? Granted, the ventral turret is different as well.
sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss... BOOM!
+1Also, were is that lyric from?
Not bad... Although I just have to point out that perhaps turning on Aircraft Reflection when making screenshots would make the screenshots look better.
@marcox43 I guess you have some REALLY good computers to get this... thing working as a measurement unit...

For the Greater Good!
Also, good to see you back. Looking forward to see more builds from you in the future.

I knew it! Good job!
@PointlessWhyshouldi Damn I'm hungry.
How many engines did you cram into that thing?
@PointlessWhyshouldi I mean, this thing IS cheesy in the first place...
@LegnaK Sounds awesome, looking forward to it.
Can someone please tell me which nations in your AU corresponds to which nations in real-life? Great plane, anyways.
+1Is this supposed to be a Su-27 in your AU?
+1PBY Catalina?
+1Congrats on Gold, and also, cool (or shall I say, mint) Gravatar.
