Brewster F2A Buffalo

For those of you who want a much more detailed and realistic version: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/3e63H7/Brewster-F2A-Buffalo-ULTRA-DETAILED

Near 1:1 in Scale! Wow this plane along with the detailed one got me to silver. Thanks y'all!!!

Hi y'all! This is probably my proudest piece of work, my replica of the Brewster F2A-3 Buffalo. I don't see many good ones on the site, so I hope I did the plane justice and I hope it gets noticed (my last fighter really destroyed my confidence in that respect). It features an actual semi-realistic cockpit (switch to cockpit view for that) and realistic looking landing gear (the actual plane's landing gear actually looked like that). VTOL for flaps, they help the plane's turn radius immensely, and FIRE GUNS for the 4 .50 cals. If demand is high for a version with roundels and a cockpit cage, I will go ahead and make one, but for now, this is what I have produced :).

Have fun flying it!

    @Pilotmario I know lol. It sucked because even if the Buffalo wasn't the best fighter, in my opinion, it was one of the cutest, with it's stubby shape Thanks for the upvote and spotlight by the way!

    Could use some detail. But other than that, wonderful build.

    Now I'll go find the Finn so that someone can look at the Buffalo and say it's good.

    Because for the most part, nobody liked the Buffalo. Except for the Finns.
