Hello hot-shots, welcome to the TOP GUN Challenge! Here you will be able to build the three main aircraft in the movie, the A-4 Skyhawk, the F-14 Tomcat, or the MIG-28 ( F-5N's were used for the movie, MIG-28's don't really exist). To enter, your creation, simply upload your design as a successor of this example F-14, which you can't use. Each design will first receive a score of 1-10 depending on how accurate it is, how detailed, and how "cool" it looks (scores will be added up for each catergory). The second part is the dogfight tournament, which can be totally random! The first place out of the looks and dogfight categories will receive 30 upvotes, the second places will receive 20, and the third wheelers will get 10. Out of the 2 1st placers, they will fight against each other for 40 upvotes ( not accumulative). Good luck!!!!! THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE

    Not for the A-4, but if you do the mig, you have to do the black paint scheme @t8erh8er

    @NativeChief1492 Yeah it kinda sucks, but maybe I will let it slide if you just want it to participate on the dogfight tournament

    @BogdanX I build on mobile, and I already got my colors I wanted on it. So I'd have to upload a private version, then download it to my PC to do that.

    Can I post my plane then link it? Having it as a successor will be difficult due to design. It's a Skyhawk.

    @NativeChief1492 For the sake of the challenge, no. Although it would e cool, I am grading these by how realistic they are ( and the dogfight portion too).

    @TheStapler Sure, just make sure it has the right paint scheme
