S-22 "Fly-catcher"

1,503 Samwise  8.6 years ago

This is a light fighter/bomber designed by Silvern Inc. in partnership with the USSR during WWII. Takeoff is, well a bit difficult, because of the small wheel base, so pull up as soon as the plane does and correct any roll. The plane has a tendency to pull up, but thanks to trim you can just adjust until you find a sweet spot. For General360's Alternate WWII challenge. Credit to Deusalgor for the Star.

    @Samwise Very nice, though they'd be gobbled up by Oni's jet fighter and my VL Salamointi if the Soviets decide to use them on the Finnish portion of the Eastern front. ^_^

    @Samwise thanks so much!
    Im going to change it, but not too much since the iaf didn't really have their variations of planes during the real ww2...

    @guyrot2010 Sure, you can use it as long as you make some changes. There are two normal machine guns mounted in the nose. Just remember to give me credit.

    @Samwise Requesting premission to modify the plane for Indian air force usage.
    Also, what kind of guns are mounted on the plane&where? If you want i can make a different loadout for the iaf.

    @General360 Thanks! It was fun creating it and hopefully more like it will becoming out soon. I'm also releasing a car in a few minutes here.
