Miniature Airplanes!

2,758 DerpyCookie17  4.7 years ago

Hello there

I’ve built a set of 9 miniature aircraft because... yes.
I guess I was bored
So, from left to right, we have:
Row 1;
Supermarine Spitfire
A (poorly made) Messerschmitt BF-110 (equipped with 2x25 bombs)
Mitsubishi A6M3 Zero
Row 2;
Kawasaki Ki-108 (2x25 bombs)
A (poorly made) Grumman TBF Avenger (1xtorpedo, no bomb bay doors, sorry)
And a Douglas SBD Dauntless (1x25 bomb)
Row 3;
Hawker Hurricane
Fairly Swordfish (1xtorpedo)
Corsair 4FU (X4 Rockets)

I have sincerely tried my best to make them somewhat similar to their real-life counterparts, however I wanted to keep them simple and small. I also tried making them on roughly the same scale, however it didn’t really work.

This set comes with x1 miniature cockpit you can manually mount on any aircraft to give it an individual test, or simply spawn them all in with the main cockpit attached to some fuel and use the cameras hat come with each aircraft to fly them! (I believe) every aircraft has a cockpit position camera, and an orbit camera. The aircraft do not have landing gear, and while some do have a rear mounted gun, it cannot aim, just fire. This was to save time and preserve my personal mental health. The aircraft do fly, however their turning circle is basically 6 times the size of the earth. I have made the AI dogfight in these and it was... it was like watching a blind person play volleyball with a bat.

Writing this I realize I have betrayed the USSR and I forgot to make any Soviet planes, so there’ll be more sets of 9 to come, as I want to make more biplanes and try my hand at mini jet fighters and long range bombers.

That’s all, so long folks!

    @JediWolf man I ain’t here to talk about war thunder or performance, I’m here to have fun building things! I play war thunder... at rank 2 ground and rank 1 air realistic battles :’), but I don’t take to simple planes to make perfect replicas, I enjoy making my own designs, or fun lil projects such as this

    @DerpyCookie17 tru but the only good plane is the PO-2 or as we WT players call it... the 2-OP because it can kill anything LITERALLY anything that flies

    @JediWolf lol it was mostly a joke, and while I know it collapsed long ago, they made some interesting planes, which I’m interested in building, such as the jet mig’s, PE-8 and more
