A monoplane fighter.


Overview

The Vultee P-66 (V-48) is a single-seat monoplane fighter.

Type: Monoplane
Role: Fighter
Country of Origin: United States of America
Manufacturer: Vultee design bureau

First Flight: late 1939
Retirement: mid- or late-1940s
Users: United States Army Air Corps/Forces
Chinese Nationalist Air Force

Other names: Vanguard, V-48 (design no.), J 10 (Swedish)

It would have been delivered to Sweden but an arms embargo ensued at that time, making the airplanes under Chinese and British hands. No aircraft survives.

Building techniques

I used custom wings (as my Heizou and the B-8S) does, but this feature customized control surfaces, from primary wings all through the stabilizers.
I decided to create a customized cockpit from scratch, since no visible or recorded picture or diagram of the cockpit controls and appearance exists.

`Note: Sorry for making the rudder control surface stuck'

Controls

AG1: What the even hell is this?
AG2: -
AG3: -
AG4: -
AG5: -
AG6: -
AG7: Canopy
AG8: Engine
Trim to stabilize
VTOL for mobile users VTOL up.
Normal controls.

Armament

It has 6 machine guns (4x 0.30 cal, 2x 0.50 cal).

`Notes:
PLEASE DO NOT MIRROR THE AIRCRAFT!'

And finally to prevent any unlisted burden, you can use it for general purposes, operational units in roleplaying, licence manufacture on your own factory and to destroy.

    What-
    You have VR set to verify if it worked?
    I don't have such so why would I tag it?

    VR not tested.
    If you have one, just test it on your own risk.
