Lockheed F-104 Starfighter
A Very Fast USA's Interce... Hold up, is not Fighter?
:flushed:
Hello! Today, im present to you... F-104 Starfighter!
Wiki:
The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter is an American single-engine, supersonic interceptor aircraft which was extensively deployed as a fighter-bomber during the Cold War. Created as a day fighter by Lockheed as one of the "Century Series" of fighter aircraft for the United States Air Force (USAF), it was developed into an all-weather multirole aircraft in the early 1960s and produced by several other nations, seeing widespread service outside the United States.
After a series of interviews with Korean War fighter pilots in 1951, Kelly Johnson, then lead designer at Lockheed, opted to reverse the trend of ever-larger and more complex fighters and produce a simple, lightweight aircraft with maximum altitude and climb performance. On 4 March 1954, the Lockheed XF-104 took to the skies for the first time, and on 26 February 1958 the production fighter was activated by the USAF. Only a few months later it was pressed into action during the Second Taiwan Strait Crisis, when it was deployed as a deterrent to Chinese MiG-15 and MiG-17 fighters. Problems with the General Electric J79 engine and a preference for fighters with longer ranges and heavier payloads meant its service with the USAF was short-lived, though it was reactivated for service during the Berlin Crisis of 1961 and the Vietnam War, when it flew over 5,000 combat sorties.

@MrCOPTY WAIT WHA
@Erc90F4RU I Think Is A Fighter!, It "F-104 Starfighter" Not "Starinterceptor".
@L0RR3B0RR3 I add it if you need go in Hangar (maybe)
Nice F-104, note that none of the existing versions is equipped with a pushback system.
@NNAX777 You can try Using Blueprint in building some Replica, its can big help
Hey buddy, seems like you’ve made a new plane. I’m just saying, I might or might not have made another aircraft that might or might not be another bad build.
The probe doesn’t retract it’s fixed on there
Woooooow
