P.L.H. Dreadnot

1,296 Panzer828  7.0 years ago

Armament:
1x YKS-23mm CNN
3x HVAR rockets

This Small biplane is to somewhat be feared, mostly by any seaborn or land dwelling threat. The plane goes a maximum cruising speed of 304mph while the actual max speed is when you crash into the ground. The Dreadnot has 3 missiles unguided and one YKS-23mm Cannon taken from an early IL2, the plane is very crude. Meant to be cheap and effective like an I-15 or I-16, Small fast for the engine, can be modified for faster flight but that would make it easier to crash. Needs trim otherwise can handle everything, great maneuverability mediocre speed and just tiny.

    @Panzer828 The acceleration is low, and there is a bit of wobbling due to the COM and COL not being at the same Y axis (vertical axis), and rise of the wings on the sides of the fuselage of the plane can be blinding while turning around for another attack run on ground units.

    @Mostly any cons you found that will allow me to fix for better planes in the future?

    @Panzer828 Pretty good plane turning is fairly stabe, It's roll is decent. I love the spar design!

    @ThomasRoderick oh just put the force to 40% I did it like that because wing mounted missiles are harder to get a direct hit with and also look at the F6F with tiny Tim rockets, they have a detach force on it and made so you can launch one at a time

    @ThomasRoderick Wasn't my plane I modded it for some one else, Trying to make it historically accurate on the German side of WW2 also increasing speed. But thank you for noticing I will write those down

    Should I change the Color scheme to something else? And if I should what would it be? Please give me some suggestions.
