This is a continuation of the teaser yesterday, my Kawasaki H11K Soku Super Heavy Flying Boat.
Also this is my entry to the 1945-50 Naval Aviation Challenge.
Currently the flying, the cockpit and the cargo load has all been completed, only some finishing touches and adjustments to go.
The aircraft carries three drivable, simplified Type 94 Trucks, all can be released and driven ashore.
However there's a problem
Once all three trucks have made it ashore the system would consider this plane destroyed due to losing too many parts (about 30-35 parts per truck, so that would be ~100 parts lost from a 352-parts plane).
If you use Gestour's refuling mod, the system would spawn a fire truck spraying at you because it thinks you have been critically damaged.
I'm hoping that by adding more details (=more parts) to the main plane could solve this problem.
The plane should be ready to upload by this weekend.

@Brendorkus This thing has been uploaded long ago. Search "H11K".

Sexy. Ttttt

@BlackhattAircraft this is the newer version of the plane you are interested in.
@Noname918181 Yeah and if you see my other works, one ROC (Chinese nationalist; Taiwan) roundel is 15 parts. One Communist Chinese roundel would be about 11.
Japanese roundel is really the easiest roundel...
@vcharng meanwhile the British roundel is just 3-4 circles
@Nerfenthusiast I will, but the Japanese roundel is literally just two circles.
Just add a bunch of hidden dragless parts.

You could add some roundels (unless the real thing didn’t have any) to add some parts @vcharng
@thefalkenreich @Noname918181
Noname is right, the real thing never had a turret. You can see plans about an armed version of H11K but none are official (mostly fiction by foreign historians)
Plus, this thing has a 5 man crew, 2 pilots, one flight engineer, one loadmaster, one loader, there's no room for gunner.
Also I have already expanded all the activation groups even without a single turret.
AG1: Bow door, releases vehicle #1 after 5 seconds
AG2: Fowler flap extend
AG3: Fowler flap rotate
AG4: Left engine engage
AG5: Right engine engage (for turning on water)
AG6: #2 vehicle release and engine on
AG7: #3 vehicle release and engine on
AG8: #1 vehicle engine on (released by AG1 with delay because AG8 is default on)
VTOL has to work both as propeller pitch and vehicle throttle
Trim is landing ramp.
You can see that I'm already pretty tight on the activation groups...
This looks like a Hess Truck design
because it would be fun @Noname918181
@thefalkenreich because the real thing doesn't have them?
don't see why you couldn't put some turrets on her
