@sharkysSPacc, It's a good idea, and there are quite a few concepts one could apply. But I'm not sure if it's worth the performance cost. also I find the interface for the ft too annoying to handle something this large. But if you're interested in experiencing that, you can spawn it as AI-controlled in a dogfight. You should still be able to use the gunners, even if the craft is AI-controlled.
Anyways, here are a few words:
This is pure insanity. You can be more than proud of this. I can't even imagine how you pulled it off to make it efficient enough to even be playable!
@AshdenpawTG22, kind of,After years of lighter-than-air vehicle research, it turned out that the house from the film "Up" actually is a highly efficient design for a war airship. Of course, this inspired some conspiracy theories involving time travel and other main plot points from the Terminator films, but Pixar officially denied any rumors.
@jamesPLANESii, to be honest, I’ve been really struggling to come up with ideas lately (by that I mean for the past four years). My main approach has been to try and combine things I like. For example, a lot of this is inspired by trains. I like the three-lamp arrangement some trains have, so I used that, along with the plow thingy on the front, etc. I could go on for much longer, but the idea is to combine things you enjoy and hope the result is cohesive. Sometimes, it helps to start with how the machine should feel and build from there. But I don’t think I’m great at coming up with cool concepts, sometimes I draw something I like, but that feels more like luck than a sophisticated pipeline
@sharkysSPacc, I thought about making an updated version because this thing is very outdated (it's like two years old), but considering how insanely annoying the ft variable interface is I won't do that...
@brians1209, Thank you so much, man! I also have something for this challenge, but honestly, this deserves to win in my opinion! It looks like an F104 and an M.52 had a child
I know you can’t hear that question anymore...but.......Mobile.........?

what a great challenge this was, 144 entries, and most of them were amazing ones at that! Also, a well-deserved 1st place.
