B-52 (Steam Version)
This is an update for the Steam release that has working bombs and powerful air to surface missiles that don't need a targeting system to activate.
To fly: Power up and use #1 and VTOL down to pull up wing wheels. Use 2 to open bomb bay doors, and 3 and 4 to drop bombs. Action group 5 and 6 for missiles. Have fun and rate and comment if you like!
The Boeing B-52H is in its fifth decade of operational service. It primarily provides the United States with immediate nuclear and conventional global strike capability. The B-52H is the most combat capable bomber in the U.S. inventory. Due to its high mission-capable rate, long range, persistence and ability to employ accurate standoff weapons and Joint Direct Attack Munitions, the B-52H continues to be a major contributor to the U.S. and allied forces.

Just remind me. I get a lot of requests. @Razor228
@WalrusAircraft I tried putting rudders between the engine pods on each wing, the thing got really unstable. Maybe next you can week you can fix, I'm in no rush to finish it
You're right that is has trouble turning. Unfortunately, I won't have time to fix it this week. @Razor228
@WalrusAircraft can you give me feedback on my B52 boat. I'm planning to the Insignias and Logos. (SUPERSAMROCK has the latest version) https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/0K41qr/B52-Missile-Boat It doesn't turn well, I'm trying to fix it. (If you make modifications to it, please upload an unlisted version, it's supposed to be a boat with missiles)
Thank you! I made it when there were a lot fewer players, so it tends to get forgotten. :-(. The bomber is actually part of the game. Kevin Murphy (the game artist) told me he used it with a simplified body, so at least a lot of people get to see a version of it. @SimpleName11
Amazing Bomber. This is so detailed. I wonder why this isn't on the Top of the highest rated planes.
@caboose235 Thanks! I am grateful of you kind words, and we appreciate you enjoying it so much!
this is amazing but when flying it does start to pull down a little. that's a little bit annoying but because of how fun it is to fly this I overlook that. I was very surprised with the mobility of this plane. I took off from one runway, flew to the other island, bombed it, landed back on the first island, and still had 10% fuel. nice job!
Thanks! @Zoe024
Cool plane✈️😀
Nice! Let me know when you are finished. @Bluebugplanes
Ah... I understand. @Bluebugplanes
This plane is for steam because of the weapons. The mobile update is supposed to come out this month and should support weapons. The previous version is mobile friendly today. @Bluebugplanes
Thank you @Shipmaster
Very cool.
@thealban - This is what I love about this community.
