Fixed machine gun issue
A simple replica of Yugoslavian world war 2 fighter Rogožarski Ik 3. Ik 3 was the first modern (at the time) fighter designed in Yugoslavia. It was armed with two 7.92mm machine guns above the engine and one 20mm canon firing through the propeller head. Although a bit slower, it more agile than Messershmit bf 109, which proved to be a great advantage in battle. During the bombing of the Belgrade in 1941, 6 out of twelve Ik 3's were operational. They have taken down 11 German fighter rs while only 3 Ik 3's were shot down. Two days after the battle over Belgrade, the 3 surviving Ik 3's withdraw to the airport of Veliki Radinci, where they were burned down by their crues in order to prevent them from falling into German hands. 6 ik3's that were on maintenence during the battle were used by the Germans during the war. Surviving examples are kept in aviation museum in Belgrade.

You got some history wrong:
Only two flight-able planes survived the bombing, these were later destroyed by partisans, as to prevent their use by the germans. All the incomplete airframes in the factory were also destroyed. So there is no remaining IK-3. The one in the museum in belgrade is a S-49, a post war airplane. Still a great model though, nice job.
These are xml moded fusulage sections. Wings are hidden inside them. It is purely decorative, and makes it much harder to make a plane flyable. Also, they are not so easy to make. You have to get them to be the right shape.
@MaleticAirplanes hmm ok so how do you build your wings because I've noticed that they are thick, so what airfoil is that
@JTM55 Symmetric airfoil doesn't create lift, only stabilizes the aircraft, that's why you use for tail surfaces (stabilizers). Semi-Symmetric creates some lift, an is useful for primary wings of the fast aircraft. Flat bottom airfoil creates a lot of lift, and is the best for primary wings of the slower aircraft.
@MaleticAirplanes what is the difference between symmetric wings semi... ETC
@JTM55 you are welcome, and thanks.
Hi MaleticAirplanes thanks for the help yesterday
P.S nice plane
@cobalT ovo je još kraljevina Jugoslavija :)
@Somethingismadebyme metci se spavnuju malo ispred mitraljeza, pa ako je mitraljez dovoljno blizu propelera, metci se spavnuju ispred propelera.
Mislis privukao :D sve u svemu sad valja :D
@Somethingismadebyme evo ga. Sad radi kako treba. Bio sam previše odmakao mitraljeze od propelera.
