Lancaster Bomber - Block build challenge
This is built only using non-editable fuselage blocks and stock parts according to the challenge rules. So I made it as much as possible using the available resources. Still, I have made it to fly very nicely on the straight path, and match to the real world air speed. Enjoy!
AG 1 for carpet bombing of 6x 25 lb bombs (all six of them will fall apart at 0.2-0.4 seconds intervals). There is 4 torpedos which you will see 2 under the wings/engines, and 2 hidden in the box-bay in the fuselage.
Armament:
6x 25 lbs bombs
1x "Tallboy" bomb (Earthquake bomb) -
4x torpedoes ( 2 internally stored in the bomb bays)
3 machineguns
A Brief History
RAF ground crew handling the Tallboy that was later dropped on the La Coupole V-weapon site at Wizernes, France, 1944
The Avro Lancaster is a British Second World War heavy bomber. It was designed and manufactured by Avro as a contemporary of the Handley Page Halifax, both bombers having been developed to the same specification, as well as the Short Stirling, all three aircraft being four-engined heavy bombers adopted by the Royal Air Force (RAF) during the same wartime era.

@MrCOPTY I see. Thanks!
@YEEEETplane X99STRIKER Call Me THE KING OF THE GERMAN PLANES.
@MrCOPTY Oh
@MrCOPTY Oh
@YEEEETplane Technically Is Not GERMAN,
Because GERMAN Planes Most Be Block Planes With ABAP
(AirBrake Armour Panels), Not Just A Plane Under 150 Part.
@WinsWings YOU are welcome🏆
@WinsWings ok, I know it if from the block challenge.
Hope you win, wing
@ChamDel78 Thank you buddy
@ChamDel78 Lol, yes, it will still fit for the solid challenge, but I did not limit it to solid blocks only in that challenge. So it will be hard compared to others, which will be using regular editable fuselage blocks.
Looks like your entry for the solid build/cockpit challenge
@WinsWings This plane is an unsightly beast
Thanks @BeastHunter
@MrCOPTY thanks buddy
@Jaspy190 oh why ?
Amazing! You have serious talent!
@WinsWings Is Block Plane, Bus It's Still Lancaster How?,
I Hope You Win The Challenge.
@WinsWings This plane actively hurts me physically
I see, lol @YEEEETplane
I meant “German” as the Luftwaffe had many great bombers.
