Entry for the “No Fuselage Challenge”.
Project Echo was an attempt at a cheap, cost effective fighter aircraft that could be deployed in massive numbers. The main idea was to completely overwhelm the enemy and have intimidation strength in numbers. One individual Echo would last all of five seconds against the world’s greatest fifth gen fighters. On the contrary however, several Echoes, let’s say 20-50 of them, would easily be able to overpower and overwhelm any aircraft by sheer numbers alone, despite their relatively small weaponry, being armed with only a 20mm.
Controls: Normal aircraft controls, nothing special. This aircraft was designed to be simple enough to be run on any device, yet look good enough to be enjoyable to fly. Keep in mind, this aircraft uses no fuselage blocks whatsoever, so think about that first before you jump to conclusions and say it looks bad.
One more thing I should probably mention is that this aircraft can take off and land without landing gear, just as long as you’re careful enough. It’s also really good at low-speed gliding, so landing softly shouldn’t be an issue.
Have Fun!

@L3dg3ndary thanks!
Good job on getting second!
@MiladicPlanes I like the game, but I can’t play it since I don’t have a PC.
Are you a TF2 fan?
@Pugman don't be a jerk. This isn't your build to judge. If it's not impressive, then could you build it?
@Pugman I was never trying to be impressive. I’m just utilizing the resources I have to improve the performance of my aircraft.
@AWESOMENESS360 yeah but a lot of people have done so it's not that impressive
@Pugman it says you can use XML. The only real rule here regarding parts is that you can’t use fuselage blocks.
@MercuryCorporation thanks!
He used a cheat fuel tank
@L3dg3ndary aight, sounds good!
No fuselages - yes
Flight: 9 / 10 because it flies really straight but could be just a little more maneuverable
Looks: 7 / 10 because it has a nice, smooth shape but not a lot of extra detail
Extra details: 2 / 5 because it has minor, but still very clean details (and only 33 parts)!
TOTAL SCORE: 20 / 25 because it is a mobile friendly, minimalistic, futuristic fighter jet that flies really good. With the addition of more detail, it could easily have a higher score. 2 Extra points were added because it is supposed To be mobile friendly and not filled with details
@L3dg3ndary thanks!
Ok I’m mega impressed By how this has 33 parts. I’m scoring it right now
