Early F9F Panther
I have been working on this all day, and it turned out WAY better than I thought It would. This is my first plane that has flaps, AND folding wings :D! As always, no XML editor was used on the aircraft. I really hope this gets lots of points, it is much better than my mig 19. 1 activates the flaps, 4 to activate the wings, and I believe 2 activates the 4 20mm guns. This is the early model of the aircraft, which later lead to the production of the F-9 Cougar (which I'am going to make). Only about 1000 of these early jet fighters were produced, with service only extending to 1958 for the United States Navy. Surprisingly, this model is different than most that i make. I say that because this actually meets the 575 top speed that the original aircraft had, so thats cool! I tried to include much more: a tailwheel and a working cockpit. The tailwheel SIGNIFIGANTLY decreased the speed of the aircraft, and the cockpit was just way to hard to make. Anyways, I hope you enjoy, and please leave feedback of mistakes and flaws in the aircraft. Thank You!
