I have recently noticed that most aircraft that are designated as bombers on this site are heavy, lumbering giants. Well, lets fix that!!! I present to ya’ll, the Light Bomber Challenge!! The Rules are as follows. No Mods. XML is allowed and encouraged. The max part limit is 450, but I can make SMALL exceptions of 10-15 parts over the limit. Any questions will be answered as best and as quickly as possible in the comments. Good luck and Good Flying Ladies and Gentlemen.

To anyone and everyone participating, I will start grading maybe this afternoon. Now there is no deadline but I would like to have all of your builds in and graded soon!
@NormalPioneer @XP or anyone elese complaining about my thumbnail pictures. I am fairly new to SimplePlanes and not sure how to make this look professional. If you are going to complain than you can either shut your mouth about it or not participate in my challenge. Sorry for being rude.
@Astro12 and you are all winners in my book!
@Astro12 oh. Sorry I forgot. Everbody will recieve an upvote.
Can I ask about the results?
@Alejandrozg121 yes I will grade it as well!
Well, i'm not very good doing detailed planes, but i think this bomber i made maybe is interesting.

@Astro12 This is primarily just a fun challenge, but all participants will get a upvote.
I have a small question. What are the awards?
@TrojanAircraftSystems XD that's awesome! I agree, though. My group has their own planes, but our alliance needs them too. I just invited you to a forum if you want to continue this btw. It should be in your notifications
@LieutenantSOT I do suppose our alliance will need bombing capabilties. The reason I thought of this is because I just heard a B-52 fly over. Them jokers are loud
@LieutenantSOT I am not sure how to do a forum. Kinda new to this game.
@TrojanAircraftSystems I can make a separate forum thingy for this if you want
@TrojanAircraftSystems XD nope. We just make an alliance... I suppose. Just to help each other, other creators, and maybe even make planes together. I hope we could make our own joint plane one day
@LieutenantSOT What all does this alliance do? Stuff like NATO?
I have completed my plane
I am almost done with my asymmetrical light bomber, and let me tell you, I have never been scared of the mirror button as much as now XD. I will finish it after school. It can fly, it just needs some more touches to make sure it doesn't spin in circles.
Also, would TrojanAircraftSystems like to join the alliance treaty proclamation? NexusCorp and the THI (Thunder Hawk Initiative) are already in it
@TrojanAircraftSystems I've been wanting to make an asymmetrical plane. Would it be okay if I make a mixed-propulsion asymmetrical light-medium bomber? Sorry for the delay on turning the plane in. School is not the bestest of friends
@Griffon1Crosswind go for it! A lot of unique aircraft designs cane from the cold war.
Oooooh I could build a Cold War fighter-bomber (emphasis on the bomber portion)
I'll join
@Jaspy I have never seen a mini stuka lol go for it!
@TrojanAircraftSystems you're absolutely fine! And thanks!
@LieutenantSOT I think it might be pushing the upper limits of a light bomber but if you are going to make another version than I would say yes it is okay to enter. Also I am sorry for not entering your WW1 challenge. Something came up and I was not able to even start building one.
