F.T.R.C. 32 fighter aircraft

20.9k TemporaryReplacement  2.7 years ago

After giving up on trying to make the thumbnail look right, 131 different saves, like, 1.5 weeks of building? and, idk. I present to you my first prop fighter, the F.T.R.C. 32!

history

The F.T.R.C. 32 was a prop fighter that started development before World War 2, as a response to growing tensions in Europe. It had an impressive armament for the time, consisting of 2 20mm guns (nose cnn added later on), and 2 machine guns. After changes in its design, inspired by other countries aircraft, to “keep up with the competition,” The F.T.R.C. 32 started production in 1941, and performed “well” against enemy fighters. Though, later in the war, it began to be outmatched by most enemy fighters, which led to the decision to stop production in favor of better aircraft, in 1943. Some continued service until 1945, with a total of 976 models produced.

Notes

  • Don’t expect anything special from the flight model, just be happy you didn’t get a plane that could turn 180 in 2 seconds, and immediately snap up if you slightly touched the stick.

  • This probably has a gud cockpit idk not good but no bad yay

  • it decelerates stupidly fast once you cut throttle

  • just remembered that my second-ever-build was literally a WW2 prop fighter… eh.

-oh yeah,

Enjoy!
