Big thanks to moonsoon1234 and EliteArsenals24 for helping me with the creation, you should definitely check out their accounts, and maybe even upvote a few of their posts!
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, the Object-263! Sometimes referred to as "The Sandal of Stalin" or "The Yolo Wagon" this Soviet Tank-Destroyer is easily one of my favorite Russian Tanks, and I've always wanted to create it in SimplePlanes, so here it is!
I've been working on this for about a week by now, and I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that this is quite possibly one of my best creations, if not the best creation I've posted on SimplePlanes. Equipped with a 130mm Cannon, high top speed, and great maneuverability, this TD doesn't mess around!
Here's some pictures:
It has a fully functional interior, with working gun movements, and it's fully furnished, with control rooms, the ammoracks at the sides, and the gun wheel spins as you aim up and down too.
Controls: Pitch and roll to drive, VTOL and TRIM controls the gun movements. Holding down on roll allows you to traverse in place, just like the real thing would. "Fire Weapons" to fire the 130 mm S-70A Cannon, and observe the muzzle-flash that EliteArsenals24 oh so kindly did for me. (I don't know how to create complex mechanisms like that, so he helped me.) The tank itself has 20 rounds in total, so be sure to make every shot count, unless you're just screwing around in SkyPark City, in that case, go crazy. (I am not liable for any 130mm HEAT-Rounds ending up flying across the map, ending up damaging public property.)
This was a very big challenge for me, especially with getting the gun mechanism to work properly, every time I thought I had done it right, there'd be something that prevented the gun from moving up/down or left/right. Also, due to the fact that I'm on iOS, my little IPad Mini can't really take too much, and by 400 parts, my iPad was already heating up pretty good. This has over 500 parts, so you can already imagine the stress this poor thing had to go through to create this, lol.
Anyway, enough said,
Have Fun!

@X4JB oh for hell’s sake it happened again, Gifyu’s images expire after a year and they turn into random images of either shoes or other clothing, I think I’ll keep these images here just because it’s funny lol
Nice pictures
@AWESOMENESS360 oof, nice build tho! Also, СУКА БЛЯТЬ товарищ!
@CookieDefender I would, but I'm on iOS, so I can't exactly use mods, or XML Mod for that matter.
When making high part builds that are not airplanes turn calculatedrag off, it should keep the CPU at a normal level, so you won’t roast your stuff!
@Stormfur lol
Bigger tanks make for deader neighbors
@SakuraSaku thanks!
really nice!
@Mmdben
@Roswell
Ok, I'll see what I can do.
The gun explodes every time :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( .
@AWESOMENESS360 you should probably redownload the build that might be the problem because sometimes the physic gets messed up.
@EliteArsenals24 thanks!
@Roswell huh, that never happened for me, maybe you were just unlucky, idk. I'll look into it.
Very nice. I like the extra details you put in the tank and the interior is also nice.
@AWESOMENESS360 I mean literally.
@Roswell what do you mean? Is it just getting damaged, or is it literally exploding?
Looks really awesome!
But the main gun likes to explode even on high physics.
Awesome job man! Here's your 10th upvote.
soviet noises
For soviet Russia?
I love this TD so much..
The Soviet Union congrats you on your fine work comrade, which means no gulag for you.
