F6F-5 Hellcat
I personally think that this is one of my best replicas yet!
It has all the realistic fuel in the realistic places, a 500 meter gun convergence (I did the math to find out how much to tilt the guns in by), 6 .50 caliber machine guns firing Armour Piercing Incendary Tracer rounds, 2 Boom 25 bombs with a combined explosive power of 500 lb, all the realistic sizes from the real aircraft, flaps on AG1 and a tailhook on AG2. The 150 gallon drop tank is on AG3, the bombs are on AG4, and there is an "American Bias Button" in the cockpit on AG7. The engine and propeller have the realistic specifications too, and there are 12 unguided rockets on the outer wings.
Flight is easy, with flaps for takeoff and landing, and the minimum landing speed is 60 mph (just like the real one!).
All parts on this aircraft were made by me, apart from the taliwheel. That was a heavily modified version of the landing gear from @TRIGGERHAPPY20's "Me 262 Hg II". As always, all and any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Note: as soon as I uploaded this aircraft I noticed that the cockpit was still a little far forward; depending on your innate level of OCD, you may need to push it back a tad :)

Sorry, my mistake. I got confused with the -5 on the end of the name :( Now it is fixed though!
