First of all, A MASSIVE, HUGE, UM BIG shoutout to both @Noname918181 for giving me tips on how to make the thing actually fly, and @Cabbage17 for actually fixing this thing. (As you can see on the auto credit)

RNP-7

The RNP-7 was a dive bomber made shortly after the RNP-2.
“The start of a new era, they called it.”

After proving it’s capability as a fighter plane, it was later mass produced as a fighter bomber, slightly increasing it’s speed and maneuverability before it’s mass production. It included some of the latest tech available to RNP at the time, a efficient bomb launch system, obviously inspired by most designs.., new and improved engines, fast firing machine guns, ETC.

After a while, this version, was turned to be a half naval aircraft.
This meaning it could land on carriers if needed, It just wasn’t fit enough for it. It’s propeller was too large, and with the force of a hard stop, the plane would be knocked forward, smashing the prop.
It’s gear design was very interesting, also. It’s main gears were high off the ground to prevent the prop, once again, from hitting the ground on takeoff.

Notes

I’m not really a fan of the LandingGear design. I had to rush it since I basically had to get this out today since I had a lot of things to do tomorrow. (A small part of the LandingGear even comes into the cockpit) BUT IT WORKS
Also I didn’t cover the cockpit on his one because it looked bad when I tried and I honestly like this better
And that triangle may or may not be a logo. I think it look cool
