@RamboJutter Well, I mean making all those builds would take quite a lot of energy. It is very understandable that an master builder like you might want to take a break. Looking forward to your return, and godspeed.
@AerialFighterSnakes By the time the movie was made, flyable WWII Japanese planes are few; also, you need a LOT of flyable machines, and risking some of the only remaining ones won't be a choice.
@jamesPLANESii Well, those American planes with their massive radial engines indeed look similar to each other... Especially since the cockpit of this thing is slightly longer than the more commonly seen production model, making it even more similar to the T-6 Texan/Harvard.
Well, based on the description, this is NOT a railgun, as a railgun does not accelerate their shots using magnets and uses electrified rails to accelerate the projectile instead. A coil gun (also known as a gauss gun), on the other hand, uses a series electromagnets to accelerate a ferromagnetic projectile - exactly what your gun is supposed to be.
@RedRoosterII I guess it would be the same mod, the 1.8 update really messed up with the settings, meaning that a lot of the older options are now gone
Two blocks away, and a massive bomb-laden plane tried to land on top of me and obliterated all my hard work That's why turning on AI Air Traffic is a BAD idea.
I have to say the PAWNCH that cursed sailing arsenal ship received from the massive firepower of this thing is both immensely satisfying and terrifying at the same time...
Spefy! Good to see you again! For the question I would say lights and panels as always, and I think something similar to either the Wakerider or the Crimera would be helpful. Also, judging by the pictures, perhaps painting the fuselage darker and with better reflection would also be helpful. Afterall, although this craft is similar in style to the Wakerider, it should have its own style as well. Also, I don't quite consider hexagonal shapes would suit this particular craft that well - I think they work better on long, broad trapezoidal wings, as demonstrated by the Axiom of Luxury and the aforementioned Wakerider, but I'm quite sure a hexagonal paintjob sticks out like a sore thumb on a jet fighter with narrow wings. TL;DR: A mix between the Crimera and Wakerider would be fine, but hexagons might have poor synergy with this craft. Also, paint it in a darker shade.
@WDRoosevelt Cool! BTW, when were those ships launched? Around the beginning of WWII, judging by the radar? Also, given their roles and shapes, I assume they are slower than their contemporaries, but better protected against both enemy gunfire and torpedoes?
Looks cool! Is this ship supposed to be half American and half British? The turrets, rangefinders, rear mast, and stacks looks quite American, but the bridge, fore mast, catapult, and secondary guns look somewhat British.
@AWESOMENESS360 Elon musk sending his red roadster into earth-mars transfer orbit, and the song was the background music on the CGI video predating the event by one day...
@LiamW I am seriously thinking about having a gun-based shield system as of now, and adding damage to the gun will make it a nasty surprise for anyone who is on the receiving end of a house-sized dagger, I assume. And yes, this thing is going to be inspired by the Intercipias CIWS, a weapon that I loved for its efficiency, and hated for lagging up my (junk of a) phone.
@GeneralOliverVonBismarck Normally speaking, a fleet carrier (which this build isn't, it's closer to a light carrier) do not sink that fast, and just where did you get 800mm torpedo tubes (normal torpedo tubes are 21"/533mm)? Also, beware as carriers do not normally operate alone. The surrounding destroyers and helicopters might be a bit trigger-happy when somethng finally showed up on their sonars.
That said, if you ever manage to get a carrier with neither destroyers nor helicopters surrounding it, it will prove a easy prey. I would rather write something closer to "A series of explosions on the waterline, another carrier started to founder. Beware of the steel-fleshed sharks that lurks down below."
Also, based on your description, Cold Waters or Silent Hunter Series, I assume?
@GeneralOliverVonBismarck Before you realize, a squadron of helos are starting to converge on the spot directly over your sub... An anti-submarine torpedo is now dropped, and starts to home on you... Perhaps it's a good time to flee the scene.
@XxLukeRZxX I think this suit closely resembled the character Baselard from the Frame Arms Girl franchise - with the biggest difference being the pilot and the weapon loadout.
Perfect build! Have to say that I had problems trying out previous units thanks to my junk of a phone (even for this one I have to remove pretty much every piece of weaponry and detail just to make it work as intended on low physics...)
"When they say "buttefly effect", I didn't expect they mean a butterfly with plasma cannons and anti-ship missiles... It's too late now."
Just kidding! Nice build!
@Zippy6 Ok... Still cool though. Also, wish you good luck on the path to aerospace engineering.

+1The afterburner will only be deactivated if you bring the throttle down, THEN deactivate group 2. Did you just forget to set zeroOnDeactivate to true?
- Yup I know this post is ancient, but I'm just too snarky for my own good.
+1I didn't see any similarity (other than the B+B-B+B wheel arrangement) between this and whatever that C-666 is...
+1@AerialFighterSnakes Those are the B-17s and the P-40s, and neither are filmed to be flying in large formations

+1Beautiful! I have to say those lights on its "neck" looks epic.
+1Is this supposed to be an SSTO in-universe? Also, why is the word "Bombing" in "'Bombing' Run"quotation marks? Other than that, great plane!
+130% boat, 40% plane, 30% rocket, 100% awesome.

+1Nice to see another build from ya, Sled!
+1Cool!
+1Do not turn over 20mph or you will turn over?
+1Why the ..-. ..- -.-. -.- did you choose that name? Because of the sheer amount of stuff ejected from the craft, I assume?
+1Is this supposed to be a maritime patrol plane?
