LAS project (closed) (A different kind of challenge)

7,074 BeeEngineer  1.8 years ago

A different challenge:

This is different to most challenges of simpleplanes because all you need to do is make a plane that best fits that requirements. All contestants have a max amount of planes which for all is one (as in only one that is picked).

Requirements and meaning of LAS:

All you need to do is make a light-weight (it must be at a similar weight as a real F-16 or under 12500kg), air superiority fighter jet with a range capable of reaching Snowstone at 1500m along with these; 4 infernos, 2 guardians, one minigun and all of these can't be XML edited (neither can weight) (drop tanks are allowed).

All fighters will be tested in:

Speed, range, weight, firepower, manoeuvrability, how realistic is it and how nice it is to fly.

Deadline = 1st march 2023

How I will inform which is the winner:

I will not rate anything until the deadline when I will test everything and I will then decide on the plane that is the ONLY winner who will get 5 upvotes on any planes of their choice and one spot light of their choice (if I can't spotlight then 3 more upvotes will be given instead) winner plane will be upvoted by me AND I will announce that it has won planes that I just realty like will get a single upvote from me.

    "(neither can weight)"

    If soneone wanted to do a PSM one then it'll be a tough challenge, also can we edit drag? Low drag but ≠ 0?
