Super Studley (Tuned up)
Based on PhilipTarpley's SuperStudley,
The Super Studley, later given landing gear by AndrewGarrison
appears to be inspired by the Henschel HS-132. (wow, that's alot of hotlinks!)
as such, it is a very simple, jet powered aircraft with decent range, and poor handling from it's primitive jet engine.
armament comes from one singular 2200 lb bomb.
Lore: the allied code named Super Studley, is an axis jet powered dive bomber, that first appeared over simplese air space in April of 1945, near the end of the great war. it is a very simple, inexpensive, relatively low performance aircraft in which the pilot lays prone, motorbike style. It's engine, because of it's simplicity, required ground crew to turn on (and off, if it ever made it back to base, which it was only semi expected to do so if the mission went REALLY well.) To enter the plane, pilots would open a hatch in the rear, and crawl through the fuselage under the engine (which was suported part monocoque, part by a ventral post), and into the nose, before belting themselves into the "seat". ground crew would then close the hatch.
because of this setup, egress in the event of an emergency was deemed impossible.

why did you murder ol reliable
@Angelo135YouTube he He-162 and HS-132 were related! One was a fighter, the other a dive bomber.
It looks like the he-162, anyway nice build
I like this
@C47skytrain this is a successor to an existing build.
@StockPlanesRemastered You should submit this for the https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/64Hkq2/VR-100-Challenge , it looks like it would work
