Biplane Fighter-Bomber. Based on a airship-based fighter I saw on DeviantArt. Had to lengthen it a bit to make it flyable, which is a shame as I loved the tubby look it had. Maneuvers well at speed.

    @JCobb no by all means! Make it! You'll likely do a better job than I have.

    @Liquidfox Thanks!
    I have to figure out the techniques the people on here use to make biplanes, I'm dying to know how they make the wing supports and run the wires everywhere.
