Kyushu J7W Shinden
Hello!
This is the J7W Shinden. I worked pretty hard on this plane and I hope you like it! :P
Wikipedia
The Kyushu J7W Shinden ("Magnificent Lightning") was a World War II Japanese propeller-driven prototype fighter with wings at the rear of the fuselage, a nose-mounted canard, and pusher engine.
Developed by the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) as a short-range, land-based interceptor, the J7W was a response to Boeing B-29 Superfortress raids on the Japanese home islands. For interception missions, the J7W was to be armed with four forward-firing 30 mm cannons in the nose.
The Shinden was expected to be a highly maneuverable interceptor, but only two prototypes were finished before the end of war. A jet engine–powered version was considered, but never even reached the drawing board.

@chemmey ya the nose gear is too far to the front
@YesMyFriend at least you got the shape in the right direction
@chemmey it's not a1:1 scale anyways tho
@chemmey ok
@YesMyFriend perhaps in the future I could help with that problem as I know how to make em gone
@chemmey uh I just was kinda mad how the pitch was and how unstable it was and fixed it but I just wanted to finish it
Splendid! But one question... Why is this 10k kg? Is that fuel stuff?
