The Boeing P-26 Peashooter was the first American all-metal production fighter aircraft. It first flew in 1932 and was used in the U.S. Army Air Corps until 1941. It had a top speed around 230 mph. It had a Pratt and Whitney radial engine.
This 1:1 scale replica is a re-imagined version of the plane as an RAF fighter (no guns though, sorry :/ ).
Flight controls are standard.
Ag8- lights.
VTOL- flaps.
Thank you to @Thehiguy for suggesting I build this plane.
Credit to @Cedy117 for the radial engine.
Credit to@MrSilverWolf for the flaps/trim levers.
Also: thanks to @MailboxIsMyGender for pointing out that my blues were purple...
Thanks guys! :)
Thats about it... hope you guys like it! :)

Thanks man! Yeah, I’m sorry about the random exploding. Ever since the 1.8 update, several of my planes are doing that. I can definitely fix it, but I haven’t gotten around to it, since there’s a lot of things that could do with an update and I don’t have as much time for SP as I did last year :(
Anyway thank you for the compliment, I am really happy that you like my plane! If it’s something you really want, I can update this plane, at the very least so that it stops exploding. Let me know.
Yeah I’ve heard of War Thunder, haven’t played it but it sounds really cool!
@PlaneCreator1
Also Hyattorama you should try this game called war thunder it’s an amazing game I don’t have the game but I heard it’s a great game that has tanks and airplanes also I really want to have that game
Cuz I tested it out and it’s amazing it has a smooth flight also a great landing too but, for some reason I’m having a hard time cuz every time I take off or start the engine for some reason the propeller keeps glitching out and explodes making the airplane shoot backwards and fall to the ground.
Dang a Lang that’s one awesome airplane you did over there Hyattorama
Np :) @Hyattorama
Wow man thank you soo much!!! That was soo cool of you!!! When I get back home tonight I’ll try to return the favor :) thank you man that is so cool @ACEPILOT109
I’ll get you there! @Hyattorama
Haha! @F104Deathtrap said the same thing!
Thanks for the extra upvotes man. I’m pretty close to 25k points and I’m hoping I can get there before I leave SP for a few months, after the new year. @ACEPILOT109
war Thunder flashbacks
Cool!! @IisFailing
Cool fact - the P-26 was the first plane to shoot down a Japanese "Nell" bomber during the invasion of the Phillipines.
@Hyattorama np!!!
Thanks man!! :) @MAHADI
