Modern Fighter Challenge

EDIT#5: hadesrocksz is now in the lead with his F22 (Here is the link: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/bzf9l8/F22 ) and here is the oroginal version: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/sM3PG0/Lockheed-martin-F-22-raptor?comment=325096#comment-325096 ). Also Gaurdian missile's are allowed now because they do not provide an unfair advantage.
EDIT#4: Stampede is currently in the lead with his Soviet MiG-17 PF (Note: I removed the wing gun so it would meet qualifications) Here is the link to see what you are against: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/sC2a3y/Soviet-MiG-17-PF
EDIT#3: The planes will all be loaded in at medium range, allowing guns to play a bigger role instead of missile's being the dominant weapon.
EDIT#2: Forgot to mention planes are due by Monday, February 1st.
EDIT#1: I noticed some error's with how the Rules and the How It Will Work sections are formatted but when I try to fix them they do not change so deal with it for now.

This is my first time submitting a challenge to the community and I hope it goes well. Basically I would like for everyone to submit a modern (Post WW2) fighter plane to go against my F-15E Eagle V1.5 (Reupload) (Link here: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/9kOkis/F-15E-Eagle-V1-5-Reupload ). This is just a fun little idea I came up with at school, and is meant for fun. I will tag the winners in the comments of a future post. Post the links to your planes in the comments. Rules and more on how the challenge will work below.

How It Will Work:

  1. Submit the link to your plane in the comments

  2. Both aircraft will be computer controlled for the best results.

  3. The first aircraft to beat mine is the new plane to dogfight against. Ex. An F-18 beats my F-15E now you are playing against an F-18.

  4. This will continue until all planes have been tested.

  5. The one to beat the all of its challengers wins.

  6. A post will be uploaded with the winner in it and the winner will be tagged in the comments of said post

Rules:
1. Read all of the rules

  1. Only 1 submission per person

  2. Armaments may ONLY include four Interceptor missiles (air-to-air) and one gun (Doesn't matter what type) Note: My F-15E Eagle V1.5 (Reupload) has four inferno missile's on it but they will not be used in the fight because they are air-to-ground.

  3. Has to be a replica (Just making sure you know)

  4. Can be from any country/manufacturer

  5. Do not copy planes off of others or use stock planes. This challenge is about your ability to build, not someone elses.

  6. Xml modding is allowed as long as you don't modify weapons, engines, or intakes.

  7. Try your best

Good luck and thanks too everyone who submits a plane.

    Ok I don't because it has to be a replica and has to only have one gun well I don't have a clue were to start as most of my planes are never replicas except the spitfire

    Sorry, but I'm not really doing anything with this challenge anymore. I would love to see the VTOL when it's done though! @CALVIN232

    @RyneKuczy of course you can, and don't worry about crediting me because I am certainly not the first person to do it

    Oh ok, would I be allowed to use this for an F-35/F-22? I will give you credit @Skua

    No, for this challenge you can only submit one plane @Stampede

    @RyneKuczy you mean the sharp edges on the sides? That's done by getting a fuselage section with curved-hard-curved-hard corners, and then rotating it 45 degrees in the xml.

    Also how did you make the fuselage look like that? @Skua

    @RyneKuczy agh I didn't see the update saying that Guardian missiles are allowed! I should have gone for those, they would have made the difference I needed

    It was a really good fight, both planes spawned facing each other and you actually ended up shooting off the wing of hadesrocksz plane, however he was able to shoot a missile off and destroy your plane, it is a very nice plane though. @Skua

    @RyneKuczy here's mine, it's maneouvrable but probably a little underpowered. Still, I'll give it a shot!

    I am planning on having more challenges in the future so keep an eye out for them, maybe your plane will win one :)@AR

    Stampede's plane won again, your plane had the speed but his had the maneuverability. @SteadfastContracting

    @RyneKuczy Nice to know, btw i modified mine further and i managed to win some against Stampede in my PC :) but i guess it won't count

    As soon as they spawned his plane turned around and happened to lock on first @AR

    Did I lose badly or is it a mutual destruction @RyneKuczy ?

    @RyneKuczy If you want, but I don't think it will affect the flight that much. Also there are two engines 1 in the back and one in the front; please make sure their Act. are both set to none.
    Thanks for your patience!
