Hi sorry iam late i tested and tryed it can fly and float i cant put weapons sorry if i dont win i am fine 😁

@JaeBeansS

Judging: Last one!!!

Dogfight: 37.5 Good roll though

Realism: 40 How do these pontoons even float? They're like sticks. Other than that. It's realistic

Looks: 24 Beautiful it's just the pontoons stopping this from absolute perfection.

Maintenance: 15 A bit awkward for engine replacement.

My thoughts: 5 I know that this is an interceptor but I think that with a few tweaks this would be an awesome fighter. Roll rate is really great.

Total: 121.5

@FlyingCat5000

Judging:

Dogfight: 100 top notch

Realsim: 25 how do you pull an average 9g on turns? Pilots would black out. This thing also wipes out at around 40,000 ft because of engine placements which normal corsairs and by 109s fight in. Getting low here is key. Another things how does it float so well? The hull is barely touching the water surface. Hulls or somewhat submerged.

Looks: 20 Brilliant, the yellow and grey paint job looks like a banana, but a dangerous one, canons make it look menacing. Twin booms give that vampire vibe, the engine placement could've gotten a rework though.

Maintenance: 19 Easy, 2000 canon rounds are easy as long as there's a hatch for it, engine service would be weird.

My thoughts: 5 I had so much fun with this plane, high alts aren't for this plane because of engine placement but still went for it. It's also a good water skimmer reaching 310 mph on water and 420 on top of it. Had to weave it through shark tooth because of its excellent handling on water.

Total: 169

@MDDJB

Judging:

Dogfight: 50 Great at dogfighting.

Realism: 40 the only thing backing this plane down is how the ailerons are so small and how trim is flaps. Other than that pretty good

Looks: 20 really liked how you used an inverted stagger wing configuration.

Maintanance: 20 probably the easiest out of all

My thoughts: 5 pretty good airplane, also forgiving and fun, would like to see more of this!

Did exceptionally great, beautiful.

Realism: 35
300mph with an open cockpit, isn't a great idea. The intake is to close to the water as well.

Looks: 25
Looks great, like the detail and thought put into it, I did mention the open cockpit but I think it looks better closed. Throttle and Joystick looks even cooler.

Maintenance: 15
Wide wings make it easy to access engine compartments, and damaged wing surfaces, but reloading all those guns must be hard work.

My thoughts: 5
Absolutely amazing, every part of it, this is a joy to fly! Thank you for making such a good airplane!

@FearlessAce meh its okay ill take it

Dogfight: 62.5
Did pretty well despite being the slowest of the competition.

Realism: 49
Very close characteristic of the original one, with just the engine lacking a bit of power, however not your fault.

Looks: 25
Absolutely brilliant the engine, the exhaust, and the radiators look fantastic. Good attention to detail!

Maintenance: 15

Should be easy, everything is literally exposed.

My thoughts: 4
Good plane, good attention to detail. Takeoff role is some what hard but other than that it's good.

Total: 155.5

@FearlessAce even though only 7th rn, I've had a lot of fun, and I would agree, my plane is better suited as an interceptor. at least its realistic I guess.

@spacegenius747

Judging:

Dogfight: 12.5
I think it's better of as a scout plane, as it is one of the planes with a higher service ceiling.

Realism: 10
First of all, landing gear... You probably know what I'm talking about. Second, the other engine that you use to Takeoff creates massive drag. Third mini gun at the tip of the wings, went have more than 20 rounds.

Looks: 12
I kinda see what the more cleaner version looks like, although I suggest using fuselage blocks next time.

Maintenance: 8
Two big engines and two small ones, it would be a pain replacing all of them, and you'll have to lock the front canards just to reload the miniguns.

My thoughts: 3
I like the effort that you put into this build,and it looks like an ekroplan, I think that's what it's called. But take off is a pain, as well as landing, it's too fast.

Pretty good plane, but possibly more suited as an interceptor.

Realism: 25
You did state that it was based of steampunk, so everything is good apart from two things: The floats and the missile placement. The floats look like more of ski's and would penetrate the water easily. Missile placement makes the missile vulnerable to sea spray, and has limited turning.

Looks: 25
Absolutely brilliant, it looks futuristic, and I see what you did to the cockpit, next time you should put another one to act as your primary, or else you won't be able to shoot missiles.

Maintenance: 10
Assuming it floats, maintaining it is easy, putting on the missiles is probably the hardest part, as you have space to put it into, not to mention that if you drop the missile, you'll have to get another one.

My thoughts: 2

This is a cool looking plane, but like I said it's more of an interceptor, it doesn't turn well, it has a bad maneuver energy retention, and the tiny tail surfaces cant deflect much.
And let's be honest taking off and landing is a pain, it acts like a tail dragger, and will ground loop if not corrected. Landing with these stubby wings is about 130mph, and it cant even pull up if you abort it.

Dogfighting: 87.5
Did really well, more than I anticipated!

Realism: 10
The radial engine touches the water and so does the blades. Leading to a poss of performance from rust, and water log. The canon looks like it could only carry two rounds. But the wings are mounted high, so I'll give you that.

Looks: 10
Looks unique!

Maintenance: 5
To keep this plane up and running you'll have to keep replacing the rusted, and water logged engine.

My thoughts: 4
Although this will never fly in real life, I like the uniqueness of it, the cannons, although not used in fighting are big and menacing.

Total 116.5

@FearlessAce yay i managed to get third place :)

@FearlessAce for once my plane did something

@Simplememes @spacegenius747
For the first time Kyuketsuki used its missiles and shot its opponent down with a glorious boom

Rounds:

1st Seaplane dives into the sea

2nd Seaplane gets shot down with a missile from Kyuketsuki

3rd Sea plane suffers a critical hit from Kyuketsuki's missile before exploding

7th place: Kyuketsuki

8th place: War Seaplane

Ok... @FearlessAce

@FearlessAce I made its slow turn so the user may want to use yaw,also that's why it has engine on its belly

@JaeBeansS @spacegenius747

Now this is the slowest turn dogfight I have ever witnessed... I can't even watch. (jkjk I did)

1st War seaplane crashed into the water

2nd War seaplane crashes into water due to damage to wings

3rd War seaplane crashes into the water due to being peppered

Loser Winner: Mayfly and D. 500 Vasp

Loser Loser: Kyuketsuki and War Seaplane

@MDDJB @Simplememes

Both planes turn together in a turn fight, D. 500 Vasp uses its double wing to its advantage and catches up, but can't keep up with Kyuketsuki's jet engines. Both planes spiral downwards towards the water, Kyuketsuki's plummets into the water after being forced to dodge.

Rounds:

1st Kyuketsuki ditches in the water

2nd Kyuketsuki peforms a nice touch and go, but simple planes calls it a crash.

3rd Kyuketsuki crashes into the water and does a back flip and lands.

Loser Winner: D. 500 Vasp

Loser Loser: Kyuketsuki

@airlinerbuilder @FlyingCat5000

Dragonfly's maneuverability is more superior to W.F 1, W.F 1 struggles to turn but loses energy, Dragonfly catches up and does it well known move, it starts shooting from 0.1 mile away to ensure victory, W. F 1's engine is set on fire and crashes at a near hilltop

Rounds:

1st W. F 1 disentegrates in front of Dragonfly

2nd Dragonfly gets its tail cut lose after surviving multiple shots from behind.

3rd Dragonfly shoots the port side engine and makes W. F 1 yaw dangerously left, it crashes into a hill.

Winner Winner: Murder Duck and Dragonfly

Winner Loser: Albatross W. 4 and W. F 1

@MrShenanigans @Simplepilot2000

Both planes weave into a rolling scissor most of the time, draining Albatross W. 4 out of energy, Murder Duck creeps on its opponent and sparks a fuel tank.

Rounds:

1st: Albatross W.4 touches the water and lifts of again, simple planes did not count this as a crash. As it lifts of however it stalls and Murder duck shoots and explodes the Albatross W. 4

2nd: Murder Duck is hurled onto the ground after it get's its wing cut loose by Albatross W. 4

3rd: After a long stall fight the W. 4 loses power and is ignited by Murder duck, seconds later explodes.

Winner Winner: Murder Duck
Winner Loser: Albatross W. 4
