Part-Efficient Aircrafts~!!

I'm damn happy with this, performs sooo goddamn sweet, my best flying helicopter so far; the problem however is that it has a relatively high part count, where my typical PEA/LPA lays around 39.58 parts average (1148 parts divided by 29 aircrafts in total), Gazelle lays at 80 parts thanks to it's flush-with-fuselage cockpit, the pros are that it's smooth, good looking, has a hollow cockpit ready for conversion(someone do that, i'm not gonna), the cons are... large part count... AH PAY IT NO HEED ITS GOOD I LOVE THIS HELI AAAA

RD capable, I assume.

The Aérospatiale Gazelle (company designations SA 340, SA 341 and SA 342) is a five-seat helicopter developed and initially produced by the French aircraft company Sud Aviation, and later by Aérospatiale. It is the first helicopter to feature a fenestron tail instead of a conventional tail rotor, as well as being the first helicopter to be adapted for single-pilot operations under instrument flight rules.

SA 342M

French Army anti-tank version fitted with the Astazou XIV engine. Armed with four Euromissile HOT missiles and a SFIM APX M397 stabilised sight.

[ Controls ]

• Pitch, Roll, Yaw : Helicopter Controls
• VTOL : Collective
• Throttle 0-100% : Adjust rotor angle, Forward.
• Brake : Adjust rotor angle, Backward.
• Trim : Pitch Trim

[ Guidelines ]

[ Taxiing ]

• Hover, adjust slowly to preferred direction

[ Takeoff ]

• Collective(VTOL) up as needed.

[ Flight ]

• Standard Heli Controls; Throttle 100% to achieve higher level flight speed, only angle downwards around 5-10° as excessive angling can result in slower flight because of drag

[ Landing ]

• Throttle 0% or Brake, Pitch up and reduce collective to slow down without gaining altitude, after speed is slow enough, descend slowly and land.

[ Armaments ]

• angy french noises
• 4x Euromissile HOT Anti-tank Missile, 240m/s(787ft/s), 75m(246ft) Min Range, 4300m(14,107ft) Max Range

[ Notes ]

• it's part count basically.. a lot, that's why i kinda ditched the ATGM director for it

Free to use!

if ya want to make an airbase, or maybe make an airwing for a carrier, or maybe to help battleships lead their shells, you can add and use any of my planes (unless you claim them as your own creation, i will damp your pillows if you do.)

Want More Part-Efficient Aircrafts?

come along come along! we(yes, we.) have a lot of low part, simple, and realistic performing aircrafts for all to use and fight against! light performance cost and AI-spawnable, there's no reason not to! we have the little beloved Fuchs, the graceful Muromets, the Holy Mi-26, and... a lot of obscure aircrafts are available!!

P.S. there's also Community Submitted PEA, if you wanna join our abode of simple aircrafts, I welcome!! as along as it is according to the rules down on the forum, cough.

P.S. if you want to throw in an idea, maybe a plane, a ship, anything really(I even got an interdimensional interplanetary vacuum cleaner).. go do it, I'll pick it up if i find the idea interesting enough.
