MITSUBISHI A6M3 Zero
Japan Forces😎
Hi! Its my 20k Special... a A6M3!
Wiki:
The Mitsubishi A6M "Zero" is a long-range carrier-based fighter aircraft formerly manufactured by Mitsubishi Aircraft Company, a part of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, and was operated by the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) from 1940 to 1945. The A6M was designated as the Mitsubishi Navy Type 0 carrier fighter (???????, rei-shiki-kanjo-sentoki), or the Mitsubishi A6M Rei-sen. The A6M was usually referred to by its pilots as the Reisen (??, zero fighter), "0" being the last digit of the imperial year 2600 (1940) when it entered service with the Imperial Navy. The official Allied reporting name was "Zeke", although the name "Zero" was used colloquially as well.
The Zero is considered to have been the most capable carrier-based fighter in the world when it was introduced early in World War II, combining excellent maneuverability and very long range.[1] The Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service also frequently used it as a land-based fighter.
In early combat operations, the Zero gained a reputation as a dogfighter,[2] achieving an outstanding kill ratio of 12 to 1,[3] but by mid-1942 a combination of new tactics and the introduction of better equipment enabled Allied pilots to engage the Zero on generally equal terms.[4] By 1943, the Zero was less effective against newer Allied fighters. The Zero lacked hydraulic boosting for its ailerons and rudder, rendering it difficult to maneuver at high speeds. By 1944, with Allied fighters approaching the A6M levels of maneuverability and consistently exceeding its firepower, armor, and speed, the A6M had largely become outdated as a fighter aircraft. However, as design delays and production difficulties hampered the introduction of newer Japanese aircraft models, the Zero continued to serve in a front-line role until the end of the war in the Pacific. During the final phases, it was also adapted for use in kamikaze operations.[5] Japan produced more Zeros than any other model of combat aircraft during the war.[6]

AUUUGGGGGGGGGG
@Erc90F4RU
I am sorry for what I had to do.
@TheMouse @MrCOPTY
I’m listening to the WT soundtrack, and I got a fittingly dark one just as I bumped it up to 70 >:)

@COMAC919 happy u love it!
It catches fire when it's hit. It's so real!
@Theguywhodosentbuild I'm Not Sure If You Turn On The Gen, Anyway Open Variable Setter, The BatterCharge Variable, Just Change Any 250 To 2500 (There's On In The Front & Other On In The End)
@MrCOPTY no I started the engine already and I was starting to get thrust but the battery ran out and the engines just shuts off entirely
@Theguywhodosentbuild Yes As I Siad, Turn On The Generator Before Battery Get Empty.
And it's not capable of even flying for more than 1-2 minutes because if the battery runs out the entire engine dies
@Theguywhodosentbuild Ye, I Know Is Named Switch But Technically No, Is A Cylindric Grip On The Left Instruments Panel, Just Grip It & Pull It Up & Select Right, Left Or Both.
The magneto switch is not even visible the switch is literally black
@gnexes There's A Small Cylindric Grip, Grip It & Pull It Up.
@Verdugo Same What I Said To
Thatguy2020
@Thatguy2020I Prefer Starting Engine & Turn On Generator Before Other Stuffs, Like Lights / Gunsight
I turned on all the stuff and I was using the starter switch and the battery died while I was holding the starter down for like 20 seconds before
If cinematic was a simpleplanes post:
