--==MED GRAPHICS OR HIGH RECOMMENDED==--

The British de Havilland DH.100 Vampire was a jet fighter developed and manufactured by de Havilland.

This beautiful and unique jet can fly pretty good, and quite fast&stable.

Be sure to pull back hard immediately after throttling up, or you'll end up as a pile of ashes on the runway, and steep nose dives not recommended. Structural integrity compromised on speeds higher than 600mph.

PERFORMANCE BEST @ +400MPH

Please enjoy, comment, and rate! Be sure to check my other planes out! Thanks!

    Great looking replica! I love what you did to the tail! But just like my version, the pitch isn't perfect. But overall a nice plane!

    It doesn't have the struts angled to connect the tail, look at other photos from a side angle@RocketLL

    It looks really cool. It feels a little unstable while pitching, but nice plane overall.
