    @CaptainFoxx so the reason the vertical stabs are like that because it helps the plane stay more stable i dont do that for looks. And the cockpit isn’t “modified” its just for it to look more like a cold war era plane. Also my ipad turned off and wont turn back on (its not dead and nothing shows up when i try to reset/ charge it) so progress on the J-98 is stoped until it is fixed so that sucks

    The performance on this plane fits it’s reconnaissance role and flies nicely. The cockpit is simple and sleek and the modified canopy is a nice touch. The only thing I don’t like about this plane is that the horizontal stab’s dihedral is pointed downwards, I think it looks a little weird but that’s subjective. 8/10
