Lerche Concept

109 Titansteam  8.9 years ago

Yo was geht ab?

This is a concept based on the WWII German Heinkel Lerche built within the limitations of the game

It might not look exactly like the original but is based on the same idea

Achtung! I couldn't get the current engines to lift the whole plane vertically so it will need to be launched in flight; modders welcome

Overall it's a surprisingly fast and manoeuvrable build that really reminds me of the feel I had of the Lerche in IL-2 1946 ; have fun!
