here we have a real oddity from ww2. a soviet attemp to make a glider attachment to a t-60 tank. the creation fully works and is great fun airlifting the tiny tank into the battlezone.

TO USE, takes off at 150mph, she is a bit nosey on the pitch and needs constant adjustment. detacher 1 to rid yourselves of the engines and revert her to her true glider (also throttle off the tank motor) in glide mode she is very sensative and will bite you. detacher 2 to drop the tank. you can either land the outfit, and then detach or you can detach from just off the ground and come to a rolling stop. in tank mode, dont exceed 20mph and then turn. she will flip. have fun, and let me know if you do anything cool like land her on tiny.

    This thing is amazing, it handles pretty well for its unusual design. Jeez the Russians crazy with their airplain designs. This thing in real life would have had much thinner armor than the ground based units, and have a lessened crew number to lighten the load the glider has to take

    I did notice the props tapping but it's dosent seem to affect anything. 1000 ft drop, that's amazing.

    Looks and flies awesome. Maby you could improve the stearing of the tank a little bit tho, it's a bit uncontrollable.
