@GhostHTX its k! Thanks dood
@Visify Absolutely no problem. The model itself is a joy. Just a small thing, as I said.
@GhostHTX Thnx and yeah I was too tired to make those letters so I just added one of my already saved subassemblies
I really like this but have one tiny gripe; the USAF didnt operate this type. The USN and USMC did. Other than that it is spot on.
awesome plane
@mixupmash same
@RealQcan Ye so close :')
Your 400 away!
I've been wanting one of these for ages :)
np! @Visify
AWESOME, very well detailed...
Fun fact: The Tigercat is considered by many to be the spiritual successor to the P-38. It has a very similar time-to-climb, maximum altitude, max takeoff weight, armament, range, dimensions. And most strikingly, forward-on profile. Compare the front views of the F7F and P-38, and prepare to be amazed. The primary thing the F7F eclipses the P-38 in is top speed. Those Double Wasps are powerful engines indeed. 18 cylinders in two rows. 2100 horsepower!
