Body of wood, heart of wood. Maybe a flying tree, but he will fight 'til the end!
Meet the P45K "Wooden Warrior!"
The Lorax has had enough.
Yeah, this goober has an entire frame within the fuselage exterior, a cockpit, and secret feature... also has four gunpods, because why not XD
Originally built to be a dogfighter in the early-mid 1930s, the P45 was one of the most futuristic planes of its time- in spite of being made almost entirely of wood. It would later be designated an interceptor, but regardless would play dogfighting and attack roles in the future. Its final form would be the P45K, with a built-in jet engine and significantly higher armor than its predecessors (but again, 99% wood, so it's still not that durable). The P45K was built in 1945, and only two were made, flying in the military up until 1951. It was the last wooden aircraft in service.
Have fun!
You don't get instructions, except for these two things:
1. NEVER try to take off from the ground. It's virtually impossible.
2. Once you've turned Activation Group 7 on, there's no going back.

@MA2211c Simpleplanes = Magic :D
@FlirBlitz Nah man this is a no budget fighter 💀
No, literally, the very, very first P45K was built by a downed aviator who used the scraps of several planes in the area to build his way out of there like some sorta LEGO guy. It was surprisingly successful and would later reach mass production (with the exception of the K variant, which had only two as mentioned earlier)
/Joke/How you get the engine igniter working if it wood? It would be a flying flame especially with that jet engine. He is a wizard!
the ultimate low budget fighter
Took this goober 25 days to finally reach the field.
Eh, gotta post 6 planes in two days. Let's do it.
