Basic Carrier naval fighter bomber i made, if someone can fix the propeller size so its small enough to not hit the ground on landing but still accelerate enough for carrier takeoff they dont need to give any crdits to me im just releasing this so the model 321 plane's name isnt stupid (model 3-2-1 seems a bit thoughtless).

    I could XML edit it to have more horsepower, that would also create more thrust and allow for a smaller diameter. :) I've tested the plane and I don't see a problem in diameter, the problem is that the front wheels are too close to the center of mass, so you have a huge downwards movement on the front when braking. CoM should be further behind the wheels or the wheels further in front of the CoM.

    Try smaller diameter, but more blades (6). It probably will work
