Twin Boom Stealth fighter concept

35.7k Speedhunter  8 months ago

Daym.... I already am past halfway to plat and I still havent made an appreciation post.... For that I am sorry...
...
...

Alhough I do have a rough sketch of what I am to make next as a 15k Special

De Havilland Viper Stealth fighter.

Essentially a fictional addition to De Havilland's V Fighters (Vampire, Venom and Vixen) which happenes to be twin booms.

The aircraft will look more symmetric in SP lol

Few of my notes:
No TVC but the tailplane between the booms is situated at the same height as the engine, which would in theory produce a Pseudo-thrust vectoring effect and increasing maneuverability at low speed

Must have a working nosecone like the Vixen build

Built around the same time the F-22 and F-35, I dont want it to be too advanced

    @TheAviator77 I see, I also have that gripe on it

    @Speedhunter I don't like that one cause of the weird front and the air-to-surface Red Tops

    @TheAviator77 IMO that one is in competition with this one


    Also I'm still taking photos for the Vixen

    @Speedhunter I don't mean to be impatient, but,

    PLEASE HURRY UP WITH THE SEA VIXEN I'M SO EXCITED

    Until then, the best Sea Vixen out there is this one!

    @TheAviator77 so my estimated RCS for the Viper would be around the same as the SU-57 RCS (if its RCS is as bad as they say)

    @TheAviator77 I think I agree with you, I just like them since it's cool, I was looking for a way to reduce the RCS on the booms at least, I also noted that having a tailplane in the line of fire of the engine wouldn't really be good for IR concealment as well

    @Speedhunter Ok, I get that you love all those planes, but this probably wouldn't work very well in real life. The twin tail booms would probably give off a stronger radar cross-section than without them, but you're free to make this plane, so, go ahead.

    @Mousewithamachinegun123 I dont always sketch, I just sketch those that seem important, the other times I make planes I make them on a whim

    Looks really cool! I should try sketching my plan ideas too. Might help with making them. Do you always sketch?
