OV-19 Fennec Fox
Short Fictional History:
The OV-19 Fennec Fox is a twin turboprop CAS aircraft designed and manufactured by Eshal in the 1960s. The Fennec Fox came to be after a contract began from the needs of Eshal's Army. Although Maverick Aeronautics design had won a Prototype contract, they had lost to another company to which the Army mass produced. Maverick aeronautics, determined their design had worth, desperately showcased their prototype to other countries in hope they could fund the project. The United Acrean States, seeing promise in the aircrafts long loitering time, helped fund the project and brought the aircraft to production. The UAS purchased upwards of 100 OV-19As and the craft saw its first use in the Bebrar War in 1967. eventually the OV-19 Fennec Fox found service in its home country of Eshal after the air force purchased OV-19Bs. funny enough, the branch of the army that had once killed the project found use in it after purchasing 30 versions of the OV-19 Fennec Fox for special operations (also known as the OV-19C). The final version of the Fennec Fox, the OV-19D has the combination of modern avionics, composites, and some of the special stuff from the special OV-19C to make the ultimate Fennec Fox. in 2008, Eshal fell under crisis and went under new rule. The United Acrean States, once an ally of Eshal, turned sour towards the new leadership and left the country to its self. After Eshal became stable again The country waged war and began the Ardineen war, believing that the UAS was the cause of Eshal's failing economy. Although the OV-19D saw combat in the Ardineen war (both sides), Eshal spent a lot of its resources wastefully during the beginning years of the war and lost most of its OV-19C/D fleet.

This aircraft was made so I can study cockpit designs so its controls are pretty basic. all controls for yaw Pitch and roll are unchanged (duh) so it shouldn't be that hard to fly. that being said to level out the craft you need a lot of trim because this crafts balance is kinda bad... rip. if you want to take off the ground your going to have to nose down first then pull up, this is totally unrealistic and because of the bad landing gear but its the only way to get off the ground.
Conception:
This airplane is clearly based off of the North American Rockwell OV-10 Bronco and I decided to make my own based off of this plane after flying one I downloaded on this website. This was also close to the time that the cockpits update came out and I wanted to make my own, so this is kind of a learning build I guess. after doing some sketches (3rd image is on of them) I built this and as my 2nd build I finished (and first airplane) it was pretty hard for past me. I've totally learned a lot from this build though and its not half bad I'd say, but I can totally see a lot of flaws in this.
Extra stuff:
This thing totally has its flaws. Some of the ones I noticed after sometime are its basic landing gear, extremely basic cockpit with no working panels, weird long proportions, and bad flight model. although some of these things I can fix with a remaster, a lot of these things I have no idea how to fix (like the landing gear and flight model). before I can make a new version of this I'm totally going to have to learn how to make these.
oh... also... this is the OV-19D variant :)

I forgot to mention, but the camera on this plane is not my own! I forgot who’s it is though because I made this a long time ago.
Excellent 10/10
bronco on steroids
Hey, I’ve been thinking of a idea. What if we make all these planes with “heat” activations create a light of orange with a beacon light. It would create a “heated” effect. Now, I would love to learn how to program a beacon light that glows orange when you are near the artic.
@PriusCat damn, you’re a good artist!
Fennec fox... what a cute name, also good plane
Good Design
Holy cow, how is this doing so well 💀
@PriusCat
I love the way it looks and I'm not even a propeller guy
@ShocK69 At the moment I’m just releasing old builds so I’m not taking any requests, but in the future when I start making new stuff I’ll think about it.
Eyy noice, btw can u make a twin boom prop fighter? Just like this one
No way they really did modernized the Bronco
@Applejuice2 Thanks, I hope you like it!
Sick bro
