Convair B-58 Hustler

The Convair B-58 Hustler, designed and produced by American aircraft manufacturer Convair, was the first operational bomber capable of Mach 2 flight.

About this build:

I have so much fun building this plane, and I thought to myself this is one of the best B-58 in the site for now. I like to add some more interactive stuff and things but due to my hardware limitations I was forced to stop it here.


Features:

• A strong fuselage, probably could hold up from a missile hit ?
• Semi realistic landing gear, paint scheme
• Cockpit interior that should be VR capable ?
• !! Crew Escape Pod !!
• Klee ?? (idk i just reward myself by putting that)
• Tail Turret (controllable)


Controls:

AG7: Eject

Tail Turret can be aim by camera
• Interior Light
• Canopy
• Nuke Arm
Access from interior view

Note:

  • Was for @Christiant2's challenge, but it reached the deadline.
    -Buggy as hell, the ejection seats explode upon ejection.
  • As I said, this is one of my most complex project, yet I finish it in two weeks.
  • Thanks to the Internet cutoff the last two days, I could speed up the process of making this build and post it now.
  • That's all for now, I'll be back with another build that is yet to be finished.

I hope you enjoyed this!

    Scoring

    (Pin this up)

    1- Design: + 8 points (Very Detailed. Perfect interior.)

    2- Movement Performance: +8 points (Flying well but you have to use trim so much. Also speed is low but it's becouse of Simpleplanes' physics.)

    3- Weapons: +8 points (I like bomb. But you could xml mod it. Nevertheless turret was modded perfectly.)

    4- Post Content: +8 points (Almost perfect but why anybody is not adding photos?)

    5- Is it fun to play?: +9 points (Interior is very detailed it fees like real.)

    6- Replica: +10 points (Yes)

    Well i have just the solution, set the collision
    of each rotators inside each capsule to "true"
    Or if you are lazy to do this
    Make sure to to eject when the plane is parallel to horizon line while pitching down

    @HariTheSnakk maybe its just another side effect on ejection rather than breaking your back

    @dekanii I see. That is fair and I don't blame you for the rather explosive oversight.

    @F8boa That is the main problem, unfortunately i wont be fixing it unless i wanted to do so, but this post has gotten so much attention that if i made a fixed version of it its not gonna be noticeable

    The pilot roof collides with the pilot escape capsule and blows the aircraft up when you try to eject at any speed, I would look into that if I were you.

    @dekanii I just discovered something today. When did you add the ejection buttons on the chairs? Because I think I found out why the escape pods keep turning into coffins...
    ...
    The ejection buttons still have collision enabled

    @HariTheSnakk funny to think that when i tested the ejection seat zero-zero, its completely fine
