Early Cold War fighters Challenge (CLOSED)

7,074 BeeEngineer  1.9 years ago

The Challenge:

This challenge is to build fighter jets from the early cold war (like the MIG-15). These jets can't have countermeasures and the planes can't go super sonic.

Rules:

  1. no more than 3 planes per person
  2. they can't go super sonic
  3. they must be a successor (I might allow exceptions to this rule)
  4. must be a jet

Deadline = 28th January 2023

How I will Judge your planes:

I will give it a score out of 30, 10 for functionality (like what dose all of the activation groups do or does it have custom landing gear), 10 for flight performance (how nicely does it fly) and 10 for looks (how nice does it look). A plane not following the rules will get a 0.

Prizes:

1st=15 upvotes on any build or 1 spotlight and 3 upvotes

2nd = 10 upvotes or 1 spotlight

3rd = 5 upvotes

all qualified entries will get an upvote

All known competitors and their points + planes:

Represented like this: _(username) - _/90 (how many points do they have from all three planes added up) - 1/4 (number of planes built)

1st VittonBR - 33/90 - 2/3

2nd Simpleplanes25 - 16/90 - 1/3

2nd MeinxHund32 - 16/90 - 1/3

    @MeinxHund32 I have already upvoted this plane and I can only upvote something once - what I mean by 10 upvotes is 1 on different planes - it would be much simpler and easier if you picked the spotlight but you don't have to.

    Little things to clear up, you have 2 things in rules saying don't go supersonic, literally just the same words. Also about wing guns since they aren't in the rules besides saying ‘machine guns’, does machine guns mean mini guns and wing guns or just mini guns? Please just revise this challenge’s description and correct simple stuff for people to more clearly understand. I wish you luck and posting my plane soon.
