Phalanx

21.2k HKAerodynamics  6.9 years ago

From the depths of the "Work in Progress" list comes the HK Alpha-62 Phalanx. I remade parts of this year old design (The prototype was never released) and I found that it had a lot more potential than I thought. As I modified I was able to provide more maneuverability, smooth down the fuselage, and finish the airbrakes. In addition, the aircraft also has a Featherlight landing sequence, made possible by it being a lightweight fighter, and the fine tuned CoM. As with any high maneuverability aircraft, never pitch too hard. Enjoy your landings on the USS Tiny! (Can land and takeoff from the USS Tiny without reversing.)

    @pavthepilot I'm not in the server anymore XD there is nothing I can do unless I'm in it. And I'm sorry, but I think I need to go my own way with simpleplanes now.

    @pavthepilot Well I kinda left cause of reasons... How are things there, has it improved? I might consider rejoining depending on how active on SP I intend to be and how the membership turnout has become.
