Vergeltungswaffe I Flying Bomb

8,615 CrazyCodeC  8.5 years ago

The Vergeltungswaffe I, or V1, was the first cruise missile ever created. It was designed by Nazi Germany during WWII. Hundreds of launch sites were set up in western France, aimed directly at London. The British nicknamed it the "Buzz Bomb", as its pulse jet made a loud buzzing noise during flight. HOW TO LAUNCH: (1.) Throttle to full, wait until speed reaches 500mph (2.) Action group 1 to release, pull up hard (3.) For realism, reduce throttle to 50% after launch, shut down engines when approaching target.

    I'm well aware it wasn't launched from a car, I just couldn't balance realism with flight speed, but also have it be launched from a ramp. I've also never been good with engines that are circular. I appreciate your feedback though. @Matthew01

    Not bad but V1 wasn't launch from car ... And the fuselage shape isn't respected. The jet engine didn't have the shape of a square but the shape of a circle :)

    I don't exactly know what the allure is of kamikaze or missiles are, but I do build an awful lot of missiles. I don't know what that says about me.
