X-290 / Alphonse T-21a Aster
Fictional Trainer
The Aster is a trainer aircraft designed to meet the Air Training Corps (ATC) Phase II FJT request for proposal. While type lost the ATC competition, it was further developed as a private venture and re-marketed towards the Northern countries and Militia Air Forces along with its sister, the single-seat A-22 Athena attacker. This is one of several prototypes with a prospective armament used in promotional stunts for Alphonse, boasting a ATC-esque basic trainer livery.

Hey so I saw a comment saying they wanted a USAF varient so I went ahead and one but I stated clearly it wasn’t mine so your welcome
Good plane, cockpit looks good but i believe you could've got even more stuffs working in this cockpit
(Make the "random squares" a real working numpad)
@WisconsinStatePolice Nice aircraft ya got there. Also, can you make the A-22?
@WisconsinStatePolice the haze gray one thanks
@dabestsock I've been looking at a couple of liveries, but wanted clarification on which one you specifically are talking about. Could you specify the aircraft or role? Like a navy trainer? Something like the haze-gray the USAF uses? or an aggressor livery? Thanks!
Can someone make a us air force paint job
Sorry about that @UrBoiNeedsDemPlanes. Thank you for making me aware!
This thing flies awesome! Only complaint is that on the hud, my AOA indicator reads opposite. Normal AOA is negative and vice versa.
Beautiful
looks great my friend
Okie @TTL
I’ll make a note to ping you an certain builds, but it’s not certain that I will remember every time. Thanks for the interest, friend!
@WisconsinStatePolice if you’re gonna make sick vr planes, tag me. I enjoy flying y’all’s planes in VR.
@WisconsinStatePolice Awesome. tag me when.
@Kerbango aight
I’m gonna Wisconsinize it though
As in put my own spin on it instead of making a replica
@WisconsinStatePolice I was just trying to be a muse and inspire you to make this. This is Lucy from killjoys.
I don’t understand, what does this mean? @Kerbango
Hey
goshawk/su-25 vibes
