Ok, so today, 1.3 has released. And now it's time to release the Ace Combat Challenge!
Rules:
First and foremost, you do not need to make an original aircraft from Ace Combat. You can make any aircraft, even IRL, from Ace Combat, but the IRL aircraft have to have something different from it's IRL version, preferably based on a Ace Combat version.
Second, type of aircraft is irrelevent, as long as it's from ace combat.
End date is February 20th.
XML modding and part clipping are allowed.
Now, for how this challenge will be judged. There will be two separate judgings, 1 for 1.3 and 1 for 1.2 until mobile updates to 1.3.
1.3 replica challenge
This is where everything starts to apply in terms of rules. Your aircraft will be judged on multiple things, including:
Attention to detail- This is basically where your aircraft is judged on how realistic it is to it's ace combat version. This will mostly apply with the shape of the body, but it may also apply with speed, handling, size similarity, and other characteristics if there is a tie in this category.
Functions- Does it have similar functions and abilities as the aircraft it has? And other things.
Weapons- Does it have similar weapons to it's AC counterpart?
I'll add more categories if need be.
Either make it a successor to the challenge or tag me in the aircraft.
Also, if I miss anything, you can post it down in the comments below.

@ACEflightINDUSTRIES Sure, but this challenge was ended like yesterday if you read one of my things on the forums... So you post won't count to the challenge. And I prefer if you made your own aircraft if it's for the challenge, but it's ended, as said before, so I don't really care at this point.
Nova can I post one of your planes that I downloaded and modified.
@NovaTopaz So........your point?
https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/6CnW59/XFA-27-Scarface-Xml-Modded my entry
@NovaTopaz Successors only? And can I have 2 aircraft upload?
@NovaTopaz
BEHOLD THE MIG TO END ALL OTHERS
@NovaTopaz
Uh Nova...
Would you be angry if I said that I re-re-re did the MIG
And now it can blow the socks off the competition!
(It will be released the morning of the 6th)
@Skua I saw. It looks nice. I'll see what I can do with it later.
My entry
@NovaTopaz my build is finally working! Expect a submission today
@SubjectT72 the combat part of the compatition was removed a while ago. And your aircraft doesn't look like anything from AC...
@NovaTopaz Does my T33-Valkyrie quality? I did test it within Combat, it seems battle Ready.
@NovaTopaz
I believe it's obvious you wouldn't ever take unfinished work - it'd be foolish to assume otherwise. Anyway, I'll be sure to upload a finished craft here by time it's all over.
Also, http://acecombat.wikia.com/wiki/XFA-33_Fenrir I have happy memories from X, and I think it looks lovely.
@Derpy1109 Uhh... I don't take unfinished work. I'm assuming that's the X-02(edit- Actually, what ARE you building?) Wyvern? It looks like one. But yeah, I need a submission on the SP website. Steam just doesn't cut it. Can't exactly fly it, can I?
Do you have any objections to those with little rep? I sorta want to enter with my own entry.
Proof I am not a little thief: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=598848364 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=601857058 (just 2 out of the numerous building logs I have, more to come)
i wish simpleplanes is free
@NovaTopaz At least AC is better that H.A.W.X.

Well, it's ok. I mean, performance doesn't really matter, as I did mention realisticness, which both of yours do a pretty good job of(Edit: Well, as realistic as AC is ;) )
@DeezDucks Augh... In that case I might make another thing too. If I can be bothered that is...
@MediocrePlanes Making a Eurofighter to top my own shinden >:D
@NovaTopaz Thx. Still not as good as that Shinden II that @DeezDucks made...
@MediocrePlanes Saw it. Actually flew it a little. It's nice, and similar to what a MIG's handling should be. Nice job.
@NovaTopaz Have you seen my MIG yet? BTW the hint I said earlier was cuz it rhymed with FIG :P
