Focke-Wulf Mixed-Propulsion Night Fighter

480 DumpFox  7.5 years ago

(NOTE: Cannot take off from Bandit Airport!) The Focke-Wulf P.1310251-13/II was a Mixed-Propulsion Night and Poor-Weather Fighter designed by Germany close to the end of WWII. The wings were swept back and a cruciform tail was fitted, the lower fin also helping to keep the propeller from striking the ground during take off. A crew of three (pilot, navigator and radar operator) sat together in a pressurized cockpit beneath a bubble canopy. Flight times could be increased to eight hours with the jet engines shut down and the rear engine operating at half throttle. Weapons load was to be four forward firing MK 108 30mm cannon in the nose, but this could be altered to include two MK 103 30mm cannon and two MK 213 30mm cannon, or one MK 112 55mm cannon and two MK 108 30mm cannon. (Keep throttle up around 90-100%. Trim down EVER SO SLIGHTLY. Should fly rather well, albeit difficult to land.) (AG1 for lights.)

    After looking this plane up, I kinda want to build a replica of it. It would be better than this one (no offense) I just think it'd be fun to build
