Muräne-V
fictional Story:
The Muräne-Vl was introduced in late war, it was planed to be a minimalistic low range air to air fighter and looked good on paper, but problems started showing up quickly... Because the whole plane was built around an engine there were serious problems with the cooling, so another air intake was put in. The plane was so small, every quarter centimeter was needed - no retractable landing gear, a very small amount of weapons and even shortages of pilot armament. Due to the massive density of the technology and the lack of armor even on the most important parts, almost every hit was a critical hit and could have meant the end of the flight. The dangerous, unstable flight character of the earlier versions on low speeds gave it the name „Der explosive Sarg“ (the explosive coffin). The first versions killed more of its own pilots than enimes due to engine failures and landing accidents, wich was very critical, especially because of the lack of pilots in Germany. But things started to get better with the third version - a way more reliable engine. An advanced cooling system made it a dangerous weapon when handed right, it was still extremely dangerous to fly but german pilots felt honored to fly it!
The later versions also were equipped with low budget rockets, wich were known to get „verrückt“ (crazy) or „betrunken“ (drunk) after just a few meters.
The cockpit:
The cockpit is not supposed to be realistic, I just wanted to make a cockpit I could actually use with working instruments
Hopefully it’s readable

A big thanks to Judmaierm, he basically did all the inputs for the cockpit instruments, thanks to LucuraPuntoCom, he helped me with a few disign choices, and finally a thank to Aarons123, who did the exhaust flame.

This one I call: terrible aiming

@CrazyCatZe even at lowest settings?
@MAHADI, i Can only fly it at Like 10 fps, so Tuning get‘s difficult
it looks so Awesome but why is the performance not so good?

@aaasss, exactly
德意志的脑洞
@CrazyCatZe I see
@ZWLenning, my inspirations for this plane where the gee bee and the mig 9
@CrazyCatZe it's the same layout... But it has a v/t tail instead of a conventional one
@ZWLenning, yea looks quite similar, but not all that much
@CrazyCatZe this.... Thing
@ZWLenning, really? How is the mane of it?
Ironically this design concept actually existed... Messerschmitt designed 2
@metaphysicalgnome, I know, that is what the air intake on the front is, the air gets thunneld under the cockpit.....I’ve shortened the description
The engine exhaust would fry up the buttocks of the pilot. Still, a very, very nice build.
@CrazyCatZe i thought it looked like the n-1 starfighter first
You are being pulverized!
@OrangeConnor, wow you saw that? It was one of my main inspirations!
Looks like a jet powered gee bee
@CrazyCatZe And now front page Feature! Noice!
@MAHADI, I does look like one....glad you like it :)
@EternalDarkness, thanks mate, I know...I’ve actually tryed to make it look dieselpunk:)
@metaphysicalgnome, thanks man
