Tupolev-900 "Lightning"

13.7k OrionAstronaut  7.7 years ago

FICTIONAL.... The year is 1993, and the United States has lost to the Soviet Union in the Cold War. The new Communist Empire instructs the Tupolev design Bureau to use the US's research on the Aurora project to design a hypersonic bomber capable of attacking the weakened United States for the motherland! The Tu-900 (NATO Codename "Lightning"), is capable of reaching speeds of 3000mph at an altitude of 130,000 feet. AG-1,2=Drop Tanks AG-3,5=Main (5) and scramjet (3) engines. VTOL slider up = bomb bay doors. use engines with caution. Full speed is only possible without catastrophic failure at 50,000+ feet. tHIS CAN GO TO SPACE AND REACH THE SNOW ISLAND IN A MINUTE AND A HALF, GLORY TO THE MOTHERLAND!. THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE

Thanks to Gestour for the cockpit

    Hard to control, but just as advertized. If handled properly, flies well. Nice job.

    @CWhat016 just dont use full throttle if you want to fly low ( max speed for low alt is 900-1000mph)

    @CWhat016 yeah, you have to pull up and get to around 50,000 in order for it to not break
