My take on the MiG-29 Fulcrum, the ubiquitous cold-war era fighter. It doesn't look quite as smooth as the real one, but that's hard to do in this game without the "skin" falling off the frame. Anyway, it's capable of supersonic flight, but not supercruise (supersonic flight without afterburning, which I consider above 90% throttle) at low altitude.

0 JakobsEngineeringIf you want to fit VTOL thrusters, go ahead as there's a VTOL engine built into the airframe. I designed the plane with it there, with the intention to use VTOL thrusters for increased thrust and speed, but so far it hasn't been practical, as the affects on flight characteristics outweigh the benefits in speed. I am currently working on this, and will upload another version when the issue is rectified. However, do not replace the VTOL engine with fuel, as the fuel is too light, and will adversely effect the weight distribution9.8 years ago
