  • Dive-bombing with the Stuka-SD, Part II 5.6 years ago

    @SledDriver the ju87 even used a rudementary autopilot to help the pilots do their work.

  • The Hindenburg Flies Again 5.6 years ago

    @TripleAAirlinesCO ahem the hindeunburg never was a blimp (blimps collapse when you take out the gas).

  • PX-01 Swordfish Mono Racer Mk.5 Cowboy Bebop 5.6 years ago

    @Mumpsy makes sense.

  • PX-01 Swordfish Mono Racer Mk.5 Cowboy Bebop 5.7 years ago

    @Mumpsy why is the gun offcenter? if i get the details of this craft right then the gunpod is under the center of the fuselage.

  • Tupolev Tu-4 "Bull" 5.7 years ago

    @Stormfur because it is a b29. the difference is one kg. they got some undamaged b29 bombers and then used them to copie the b29.

  • Ship Prototype - Wing In Ground Effect 5.7 years ago

    @Avro683Lancaster fitting meme my friend.

  • Karlsson on the Roof 5.7 years ago

    @GenrichTitov essentialy he is a cyborg. but more like batou or motoko (from the animes). he is friend not enemy.

  • Ship Prototype - Wing In Ground Effect 5.7 years ago

    @Phantom1 nope the way it works make it so that it counts a a hovercraft type vessel. but better.

  • Ship Prototype - Wing In Ground Effect 5.7 years ago

    @Phantom1 thats a boat my freind. not a plane a ship that flys.

  • PZL-Mielec M-15 5.7 years ago

    @Mod king of the swing at the moment. best looking model of the ugliest plane in human history. cheers.

  • Arsenal Bird ver.3.1 5.7 years ago

    @JediWolf the dumbest place for them comes to steam in the near future: halo. in one halo game you can see a ship like the pillar of autum docked planet side and then taking of to space and the 5 km long unsc infinity carrier lands one a planet in halo 4 (when i am not wrong) only to get up again from its own power. and halo has space elevators. something of a trope to have them.

  • U-Boat Type XXIX 5.7 years ago

    @Stellarlabs the thing is that the type 21 and 23 submarines are the predacessors to every submarine in military use since the war. also the 212a uses an engine that doesnt need as much of a heatsinc as the gotland. would be nice to se a 212a on the site.

  • Arsenal Bird ver.3.1 5.7 years ago

    @JediWolf did you never think bout it?

  • Arsenal Bird ver.3.1 5.7 years ago

    @JediWolf the dumb thing i mentioned is the elevator. if you think about it: the systems required to build it are also capable of replacing it when it could be build.

  • U-Boat Type XXIX 5.7 years ago

    i woudl say the same things as @Grant321 and Gady13131 but why not a succesor to the type 21 or type 23? the 212a is already in service and probably better than your fictional unit so why not going to 212a,s and seawolfs granddad?

  • Thomas the thermonuclear bomb 5.7 years ago

    @FishMiner i think it was this or related to this: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/XOiPk6/Thomas-The-Thermonuclear-Bomb-erbomb

  • Thomas the thermonuclear bomb 5.7 years ago

    very likely deleted. sorry buddy.

  • Thomas the thermonuclear bomb 5.7 years ago

    @FishMiner not yet but i can search. in fact: i learned of it because of this build.

  • Thomas the thermonuclear bomb 5.7 years ago

    sorry fish miner but someone buidl him already and in way better. but still upvote for the effort.

  • Arsenal Bird ver.3.1 5.7 years ago

    @JediWolf and to defend one of the dumbest things you can put into a scifi story if you ask me.

  • "Fritz X" (Ruhrstahl) Smart Bomb 5.8 years ago

    @GeneralPatrick2 its a controlable free fall bomb. think the moab but smaller. glide bombs fly like soaring planes but the fritz x never did. some descriptions of weapons are junger than the weapon itself (the v1 is a cruise missile and the reason why we call weapons like it cruise missiles. i am not shure but i think the nazis simply called it a missile).

  • "Fritz X" (Ruhrstahl) Smart Bomb 5.8 years ago

    @GeneralPatrick2 nope the real bomb was a classic free fall bomb. also the real name of the fritz x is the panzersprengbombe 1500 (pzb1500). the fritz x was a set of parts to turn the bomb into a controlable bomb.

  • J-2 5.8 years ago

    its missing the main gun.

  • Republic F-105D Thunderchief 5.9 years ago

    @ACEPILOT109 well done. i think this model is worth every credit it gets.

  • Royal Space Force The Wings of Honneamise - Schira-dow_Double seat Trainer .ver 5.9 years ago

    @JohnnyBoythePilot because it ends with the main character going to space.

  • My Ornithopter 5.9 years ago

    @zap210 i tagged a boom 50 on a smaller one. they can be used as tacktical strike craft.

  • My Ornithopter 5.9 years ago

    @zap210 can you make bomber out of it?

  • SZF-309 Stundardflieger 5.9 years ago

    ahem jour spalling is a bot wirng up here. i think you ment standardflieger my dear @DestinyAviation.

  • Sturmpanzerwagon 5.9 years ago

    @MrContaminated good luck buddy.

  • TU-95 Bear With Tsar Bomba (My First official Plane) 5.9 years ago

    @Natedog120705 fun fact about the three first nukes: fat man, the nagasaki nuke had a higher change of going of than little boy, the hiroshima nuke because the trinity bomb and fat man where the same type.

  • TU-95 Bear With Tsar Bomba (My First official Plane) 5.9 years ago

    @Natedog120705 the reason was that they needed the bomber and still wanted to show off (by cutting the power in half they got a 50% chance of getting the plane back).

  • TU-95 Bear With Tsar Bomba (My First official Plane) 5.9 years ago

    @Natedog120705 did you know that the tested tzar bomb was only half as strong as the planned unit?

  • TU-95 Bear With Tsar Bomba (My First official Plane) 5.9 years ago

    @Natedog120705 i a gree with tsampoy this looks great for a starter plane.

  • 007 Challenge 2019 [CANCELLED] 5.9 years ago

    @RamboJutter jupp.

  • 007 Challenge 2019 [CANCELLED] 5.9 years ago

    @mikoyanster i am not shure but i think my dad thinks the plane is a prop for the movie (i know that we saw the movie together).

  • 007 Challenge 2019 [CANCELLED] 5.9 years ago

    @mikoyanster uhm the bd5 isnt still alowed. i would change that (although it was used in one bond movie but it is a real plane so).

  • WW2 British Attack Plane 5.9 years ago

    @Spinowill i agree with awesome but wich planes is this suposed to be or ist it your own creation?

  • Boulton Paul Defiant 5.9 years ago

    @Avivspitfire i didnt say the defiant was crap. the defiant was only build to attack bombers that the luftwaffe had (but scrapped before the war even started) and therefore the bf109 incident sounds fictional but still the defiant has such a siluette that the chance of mistake ot for another plane is very low (the french had a plane that looked like bf110 but was even worse that the 110. some french pilots attacke their own planes because of this and the mustang looks similar to a bf109 from certain angles).

  • Boulton Paul Defiant 5.9 years ago

    @Avivspitfire this is probably a myth caused by a british officer that sayd they look like hurricanes (or spitfires) from a distance (the guy wasnt even a pilot). they have a bigger caviat on their hands: at least one he111 was taken down by them and at this point the he111 was one of the fastest planes around.

  • Mitsubishi Ki-200 Shusui 5.9 years ago

    @LOWEWAYY its a me163. the plans for the engines where from germany but the allies sunk the submarine with the construction plans for jet and rocket planes. japan manged to recreate the planes from datasheets and photos (japan also got plans for jet engines and then used the method described up to build thei own 262 variant).

  • Wolf Pack U-Boat 5.9 years ago

    @Stingray the type two was from a time far removed when submarines where surface vessels with a hide and seek button. this designs have still some charm. its a bit depressing that only a hand full of them survived (deutsches museum munich has the u1 the first german submarine/ submersible and near kiel in laboe is a typ 7 in the c variant as a memorial. thats the only two submersibles i know that survived).

  • LB-1 CLAB 5.9 years ago

    @doge my someka build also has refueling mod (wnp air refuel) and infinite fuel. air refueling makes a great minigame.

  • GAMF-01 Phoebe 5.9 years ago

    uhm @RailfanEthan why did you not find this until now?

  • Merry Christmas! 5.9 years ago

    me german me got gifts yesterday. but tree is nice. oh and we still dont put pickels into our trees on christmass.

  • MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! 5.9 years ago

    today celebrating are: germany and the british royal family. also i am german and we dont pu pickles into our trees.

  • real-physical-helicopter 5.9 years ago

    @sexylips35 most of them use engines on the end of the blades and lack the tumble disc. thats the first build i know of that uses one.

  • real-physical-helicopter 5.9 years ago

    @sexylips35 dont say this to this work of a god. this is the first chopper in sp i have seen with a real chopper steering. @haogejiuhaoge1 is a bit to small for such feet. so scream for more atention he has earned it.

  • The Great Galactic War (MARS/1-1) Challenge 6.0 years ago

    @LotterCrafts but it must be one of the early ones (fokkers idea of quality was that if the thing flys then its good and this lead to the point that every new planes was worse than the one before).

  • The Great Galactic War (MARS/1-1) Challenge 6.0 years ago

    @ThomasRoderick i think that closed cockpit means that you have to build like you would build a jetfighter or other crafts. not open builds like the fokker dr1.

  • The Great Galactic War (MARS/1-1) Challenge 6.0 years ago

    @ThomasRoderick i would say yes. makes sense to have at least the bombers goin trans atmospheric.
