Just two mustangs glued together, nothing much.
The F82 Twin mustang was a multirole proppeller driven aircraft used in late world war and in the korean war. it was meant to be a long range escort for B29s to enter japan, but since the atomic bomb did its job in Hiroshima-Nagasaki the F82s were used as an attacker instead.
ease up on the throttle at take off, and landing might be hard since you need to lower your speed below 150 and pitch the nose up. other than that, this thing fights and flies well. enjoy!
act 1 to drop fuel tank.

You should modify it and make the F-82 Spin Mustang
Sort of. Twin engines. Mono-tail. Only twin cockpits pretty much is different p
@Smokehouse03 yeah lol, didn't know what those pods were
Looks like a p38
@Colbs7200 i'll be supporting you as well dude, all the way. You should really get it for your desktop, better than looking at a tiny screen and it is more relaxing. Making the cannon work in such a small place would take alot of effort :o, especially a functioning tank cannon. But Heyy if it looks bad, but it works, it aint that bad!
@ChaMikey
Absolutely man, you deserve it! In regards to the tank, I will cram as much as I can into it. Sadly, I'm using my iPhone so I dot have the ability to use XML and i'm prone to lagging. I am however looking into purchasing simple planes for my gaming desktop, as it will have absolutely no issues with lagging. Tomorrow hopefully I can complete a smaller caliber version to use for the comp., as well as starting an SU-152 build utilizing the auto-loader. Its going to look like shit, but if it shoots who cares, right?
@Colbs7200 and dude, thanks for helping me reach silver!!
@Colbs7200 baldovinos torpedo might help you with the torpedo tube, the props a bit big though, is it even possible to make a ship that big and not lag your laptop? And damn, a working cannon on that tank? Thats awesome, would it have an autoloader or just a one shot? Would be very epic though
@ChaMikey
Absolutely, I'm just not really looking forward to dealing with Fuselage blocks... And a very hasty 3x torpedo tube is done as a proof of concept, but not uploaded(It uses Mk13 long range torps, the same in my "Various Torpedoes"). And Considering that the cannon is the size of a plane, Yep big ship. My next project in line is to get a smaller functioning version made for more practical use, And then to refine the large one and create different ammo types. And yes, once all of that is done I will start an Iowa or Yamato style set of turrets. I may even try to "refit" the 152mm to handle the auto-loader to have something to play with. And then there's this challenge... https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/0GMc79/Object-670-Challenge
That will have a working cannon shoved into it one way or another.
@Colbs7200 thats awesome, and the ship has to be bloody big, cus thats a bigass cannon. Are you gonna try a 3 barreled cannon sometime later? Thatd be pretty awesome!
@AnarchistAerospaceIndustries oh yeah i havent figure out how to fix that lol, probably a new landing gear, oh a gun pod? Interesting thanks for the info and critics! I will fix it and maybe reupload later on
@AnarchistAerospaceIndustries
The "gun pod" on the F-82 was one of multiple attachments that could be equipped there, the two most notable being a 4,000lbs bomb and radar equipment. In fact most didn't even have the gun pod
@ChaMikey that's great! I've already had people tell me to get it out on a ship. There's more coming too, and I'm excited
@ChaMikey no I mean I can't EVEN SPAWN AND TAKEOFF.. The nose just slams into the ground... Plus it's not a "fuel tank" it's a GUN MOUNT. The F-82 has 14 MG's.. 6 on the wings, 3 on each side of the "gunpod" and two on the bottom of the pod.
@Colbs7200 thats awesome! I will begin to work on making a battleship with your cannon :D
@Delphinus @RedHawk thank you guys so much!
@AnarchistAerospaceIndustries lol i know its very hard. Go with 25% throttle if it still has problems lower the throttle and dont forget to lift the plane and keep the nose up.
Really enjoy your build style. By the way, a bare bones auto-loader is done.

Amazing build!
I can't even take off
