P-51-XJ2

302k WinsWings  1.6 years ago
Auto Credit Based on Jundroo's P-51-D

During the end years of WWII, jet engines became increasingly available. UK Ministry of Defense ordered to fit their jets into the famous American P51 fighters in RAF service as a backup plane for Gloster Meteor project. UK obtain many P51s according to the US government's land lease program at that time. This version was fitted with Roll Royce NeNe-46 engines and was called P51-J. The contract was given to Win's Wings Design bureau for conversion from Piston engine to Jet. Only one prototype was produced.

Unlike original P-51D, with the help of jet engine, it top speed is about 500mph (800 kmh) at altitude of 40,000 ft (12,000 meters). The dive speed could be much higher - up to 650mph.

*Fictional - build based on Jondroo's P51-D

    @BRNavyPilot Download my SU-17 which I used the WIngSweep function at this link - Su-17-with-Automatic-Sweeping-Wings and compare what was the mistake in your build. I hope you could figure it out

    @WinsWings well i set the rotator for rotating the wings on my plane, as i want its wings to be sweepable. the variable is called WingSweep, and i set the 2 rotators of the 1st wing to WingSweep cuz i prefer editing the inputs of all rotators at once so i dont need to do it separately 2 times and later on 4 times. But whenever i change the rotator input to WingSweep its stops working, but i set it to simply Trim it works just fine. And if i set the WingSweep variable to Trim it doesnt.

    @BRNavyPilot it is case sensitive. Check if you spell such as “Pitch” or ‘’pitch’’

    I had a toy p-51 that I broke the propeller off, and pretended it was a jet. This is literally what I had in mind

    @Falkenwut well, Saber was well designed jet fighter - with a real jet cockpit, with a shorter nose since there is no need space for the long piston engine before the pilot. Thank you so much

    Very good design!
    I'd only sweep the wings back, and call it a Saber.. Wait a minute...
