Grumman F-14B Tomcat

Tomcat!

-C.W Lemoine everytime he sees/uses an F-14


Hello, it's me again with another simple creation. This time, it's a simple remake.

I made an F-14B around 2 months ago, you can probably see it in my highlighted aircraft section. That F-14B is what carried me here.

And not going to lie, it was pretty bad. I made it by purely looking at the blueprints, and not actually matching the blueprint. There's some huge flaws, and the cockpit is bad. Since I made the design in 1.10.

Style has changed, new things I've learnt, and 2 months later, here we are with a simple remake. Pretty fast if you ask me.

Note:
If you're trying to maneuver fast, use the 20° sweep, as higher wing sweeps significantly affects your performance. Manual wing sweep can be activated when deactivating AG8. And maybe drop that tank in the process. (AG1)
Tailhook is AG2, and flaps are pretty powerful.

Burning, but not splashed.


Have a portrait wallpaper :D

Enjoy, and fly safe!

    People have their own preferences.
    I personally like to make my aircraft around the scale of 1:1.25. Maybe someday I'll make one that's 1:1 scale.

    @ZeroWithSlashedO I know about blueprints but like, is there any specific things i should know? Also, i prefer this afterburner but oh well.

    I much prefer the "ring" one, tbh. And also it looks a lot more satisfying.

    Also, i think you should stick with this afterburner design, the one you used on the typhoon looks odd depending on the direction you're facing.

    Cool tomcat, btw do you have any tips on how to make replicas? I might try to make one at some point. Also, i'd like to see the blueprint if you still have it (i'm curious about the accuracy).
