Grumman XP-99
Pre-note: I built this to commemorate my silver status. I couldn't have done it without you, the SimplePlanes community. I have yet to find a game with a better website community than ours. Special thanks to the upvoters who pushed me over the edge in this post. This is a quick build I have been working on on and off. It is intended to be a fictional naval fighter designed in the 1930s. It doesn't have a complete armament, but it has two air-to-air 50mm cannons. (don't know why that funky tree grew there, but okay). Stall speed is very high, around 160 mph. The balance is pretty good and it is very stable. It has a reasonable roll rate but a poor climb ratio. Its size says light fighter, but its characteristics say heavy bomber. Idk why, but its a fun challenge to land on the carrier.
