Description from Wiki
Full Wiki Article click here
The Heinkel He 280 was the first turbojet-powered fighter aircraft in the world. It was inspired by Ernst Heinkel's emphasis on research into high-speed flight and built on the company's experience with the He 178 jet prototype. A combination of technical and political factors led to it being passed over in favor of the Messerschmitt Me 262. Only nine were built and none reached operational status.

I LOVE IT! Its amazing I can make it Multi role ( Ground and Air attack ) Yay Thanks!
I just tried it in a crash landing test in the water and if it flip it could easily become a boat. 😁
It is very hard to land on mobile at least for me maybe the slowing down mechanic could use some work
@ShootsPlanes idk
Maybe I'll rebuilt it if i got a PC or laptop
@IreneFritzruss will there be a 500 to 700 part version?
@IrFritzruss thank you
I wish I have a pen
@OzpinTheHeadmaster i use Eraser to make Png of the plane
And manually draw the background using Medibang paint
Can you tell what kind of app or software
To make that thumbnail
Ah I see. Very interesting!@EngineerOtaku
This isn't a bad build. Shaping is good, flies just fast enough, pitch control is good and smooth. I didn't like how slippery and over sensitive the roll response is though. Overall it's nice. :)
@Hedero The Heinkel 178 if I recall the configuration was a single-engine turbojet in the fuselage, rather than the twin engine in pods style of the 280. Both jets had the same razorback spine, so appearance wise they were quite alike there. The 178 also didn't have the twin tails.

I'm just going off memory since I'm too lazy to look it up lol.
good plane
Good👍
Cool! Very much! I am glad that such a building has collected 40 apvotes!

Nah, He 178 don't have gun
That's why this one is first Fighter aircraft that use turbojet
I thought the first was the he 178?
