Fairey Swordfish I

13.2k NordicTuna  4.0 years ago
Auto Credit Based on NordicTuna's Fairey Swordfish I

First upload in almost 2 years! I wasn't lying when I said I still play this game regularly ;)

Obligatory not a new build, I built this a couple of months ago and decided to make it public. My very old (and admittedly awful) Fairey Swordfish receiving attention 4 years after its upload prompted me to put this out.

This one actually flies like a proper airplane! The wings are also shaped more like I had hoped. Also, it has pretty few parts (My builds as of late have been pretty basic, with shape and scale being the primary goal), so it may be useful as an AI in races or even dogfights.

AG1 activates turret
AG2 toggles tailhook

    Nice! And I always see the swordfishes fuselage as a little derpy, I don’t know why but it just looks so funky
