I won't try to search for anything that's not a successor. To make your plane a successor you have to download this cockpit and build your plane. Once you're done, upload it on www.simpleplanes.com NOT ON THE STEAM WORKSHOP. I'll get a notification that a successor has been uploaded. You do not have to ping me.
If I find out that you have submitted a build that's not yours, you will be disqualified and will not be able to submit any planes to this challenge

If you like this challenge, please upvote it!
Don't name your plane "WW2 challenge" or "KI-4242 WW2 Bomber challenge" it's kinda annoying and less people will download it.
Bona Fortuna!

Congratulations @Acepilot118 !!! Your submission has won the challenge!!!
The challenge is closed! I recieved the last entry yesterday and i'll give it the points. No more entries from now on.
@Levihugs Yeah the fighter from the decision match for some reason shot out all your engines and your plane crashed. Your plane is the best looking of all, but the winner just had more performance
@MrGreen ok.
@jdab5 nah don't bother changing it you'll probably lose some points but if your plane is good it shouldn't be much of a problem
oh I already submitted a plane with a bomb bay mod
@jdab5 Depends on which. overload and fine tuner are allowed, as well as the instrumentation mod by gentour
can you use mods?
Thank you all for the upvotes! I really appreciate it!
@MrGreen sweet thanks
@KeeBird Nice i'll check it out today!
Btw: normally when you're doing a challenge you have to download the cockpit and build your plane off of that. Once you upload it i'll recieve notification
Never done a challenge but I’ll give it a try
(Submission is my most recent upload)
@MrGreen ok thanks
@PapaKernels You can have more bombs if you want
@MrGreen Sorry I delete it :( I need rework it
Also my entry is almost done, I just need to get the details and the livery on
I just want to make sure, can I have more than 10 boom 25s?
@Ponethiglawy I can't access your submission. Is this intentional?
@RYAviation can't wait to fly it!
I’m about 62% done my entrie
@Jaspy109 ok that's fine
@Jaspy109 what are the dimensions in meters?(HWL)
I think I’ll join. Finally Japan will get a cool late-war bomber :)
@PrestoPo Whatever you want
Does the aircraft have to be a monoplane or can it be a biplane?
