@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore ah OK, it's actually 6ft longer than the hurricane, the fuselage is chunky and the nose is short due to the big engine so maybe its a combination of those?
@ChiChiWerx I appreciate the time taken to produce such a humerous and accurate appraisal of my build, Captain Bentprop would have to try exeedingly hard to live up to his name on this build though. I am astounded you managed to get 400mph out of the build, i had it maxed at 300mph, maybe as the build progressed i tweaked something i shouldnt have. I do admit to rather struggling with both ground and flight characteristics on this build, the fact the engines are so far above CofG / CofL made it darn tricky. I shall endeavour to create a MKII with upgraded features and an improved model. Thanks again, wait until Captain Brentprop (or Bentprop as i read it) sees the next few builds i have lined up...
@Trainzo I know, that was going to be my other name for it but then I ended up adding letters for Dug and it was ground attack afterall =) Thanks for your upvotes and comments of late, im glad you are liking my builds.
@WinsWings Not a problem, thanks for doing it now, its a shame old designs die a death for downloads / upvotes after a week or two, there should be a way to cycle them onto the home page or something.
@HariTheSnakk Thanks :) yes, they are only JDAM 38s (small bomb), they are used for precision strikes rather than big bang collateral damage weapons (I think).
@MajGenBlackbird Thanks, glad you liked it, i had forgotten all about this one, it didnt get that many upvotes so it doesnt appear on my list... Im not so bothered about the fix as its just "zeroOnDeactivate = true" missing on one hinge, its fixed on mine now so if i ever do a sequel it will work fine =) You could do a few mods and post it as a successor if you fancied it.
@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore nah, the numbers at the end tell me how many saves I made making it I.e. this is build Has taken 70 saves. It just helps me for any future variants by knowing what save this one was upto (plus its called something different on my saves). I save so often due to losing loads of progress in the past with the undo / redo function or accidentally loading something else...
@crazyplaness Ok, thanks for replying and re-instating them, this is all getting a bit silly now, I have made camo schemes for planes ever since i started with simpleplanes and never had issues such as this...
@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore Since i dont know what that is any resemblence will be purely coincidental. Correction, apparently i have it on my steam wishlist without me remembering what it was... oops, thanks for the reminder.
@TheNewSPplayer thanks for the heads up, not impressed, my build without credit or successor... I don't mind people using / altering my builds but not keen on passing off my builds as their own
@crazyplaness fair enough, thanks for replying. Am i right in assuming that all though the comments are locked people can still submit a comment (which is not shown) hence i still get email notifications for them?
@YarisSedan Ah, ok, pity, i thought i was missing comments from people about the build... Thanks for letting me know though, i hadnt seen any of that (barring one person telling me that politics shouldnt be involved in SP while inferring it was...)
@crazyplaness morning, im just wondering if you know why I can't see who upvotes or any comments on my F-25 build? I still get email notifications that comments are being posted though...
@Boeing727200F no idea, i didnt see one, but then my posts seem to be losing comments and all sorts at present (i had a notification of 22 comments on a build, when i went on all comments were gone...)
@VarisOnAviation it's posts like yours that anoy me, no upvotes for the build, no comment about the build, just post some political rubbish while pretending the post isn't political at all. If your not commenting about the game / build just don't bother.
@TheCommentaryGuy I haven't created a concealed config, the only bay would have been where the drop tank is located, this was due to the size of the undercarriage bays etc. I can add one later if I create a Mk2.
@GalaxiesDontSlleep Thanks for the upvote and comment. To answer your queries; i didnt feel RAM was necessary as it wasnt designed as 100% stealth (no internal bays, exhaust shape etc.) and I fancied doing a camo scheme for a change. Its more of a reduced radar cross section design than full stealth. Planform alignment was more of a design choice (fluke) than intentional to meet stealth requirements, i just fancied using a similar layout to the YF-23 and it worked well with the fuselage etc.
@Kangy nope, but this was based on the Canberra so I just found a town in Australia that was near to Canberra :) The last build hops up and down hence Kangaroo.
@ThomasRoderick Thanks =) Glad you are still here as well. Im still just plodding through some unfinished builds, not really building like i used to hence the times between posts.
@Gs Yeah, i started with imggur(i think thats what it was called), then discord, then steam, they all seem to have a shelf life and then all the links break afterwards (apart from Steam which is just a ballache to use)...
@AWESOMENESS360 Thanks for your feedback, im glad you liked the build, it was fun (if hard work) with all those angles etc. In regards to the gun i thought about adding one but then thought it could be added as a pod as per the F4 etc. (i can do a MKII with a gun etc no problem). What in particular didnt you like about the missiles? I tried to make them reasonable for the period (80s-90s), the Harms were designed for anti radar (of which SP doesnt have any) so i just made it so that 2 were needed per destroyer, the AIM 54 Phoenix work against aircraft reasonably well, the sidewinders have a bit of a struggle sometimes staying aquired but im pretty sure they are like that in real life? Any feedback is good for me as i can add it to the next build / update this one.
@Randomplayer The pics for most of my stuff is disapearing yet the links are still working??? No idea whats going on here. edit: apparently discord file links only last 24 hours now so everything i have posted since imgur started messing up and i moved to discord is now lost...
@MAHADI Thanks. It is armed though, it has 6no cannon in the nose? I didnt put anything in the weapons bay as per real life aircraft the load out is mission dependent and i was using this as a fighter primarily (but like the mosquito it has a weapons bay if required).
@Type2volkswagen I don't, I was given two codes for FT UC stuff, one delays retract, one opens then shuts in the same motion, im not the creator of the FT codes and they are unfortunately like black magic to me.
@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore ah OK, it's actually 6ft longer than the hurricane, the fuselage is chunky and the nose is short due to the big engine so maybe its a combination of those?
+1@ThomasRoderick @Trainzo thanks guys, hope you had a good Christmas day 🎄 😀
+1@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore what do you mean? It's not short.
@DCSplanepro12 cool, thanks 😎

+1@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore I wish SP showed how many hours a build took, then the number of saves would make more sense :)
+1@florky it's cool isn't it, was a fun little build
@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore nah, the numbers at the end tell me how many saves I made making it I.e. this is build Has taken 70 saves.

+2@crazyplaness Any idea why my last two builds have been removed by a mod?
@Boeing727200F ah OK, I still get email notifications on it though :)
@Boeing727200F I received a notification that you commented on my other build but the comments are locked so I can't see it / them
@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore Since i dont know what that is any resemblence will be purely coincidental. Correction, apparently i have it on my steam wishlist without me remembering what it was... oops, thanks for the reminder.
+1@WinsWings Thanks for the spotlight (upvote and comment), much appreciated. Im enjoying my camo schemes at present =)
+1@TheNewSPplayer thanks for the heads up, not impressed, my build without credit or successor... I don't mind people using / altering my builds but not keen on passing off my builds as their own
I dont mind, i know its just a recolour and removal of weapons but if you are enjoying my build and having fun i have no issue with it.
+3@crazyplaness Ah ok, thanks for clarifying that, ill just ignore the notifications for that build then (ps thanks for the compliment about the build).
@crazyplaness fair enough, thanks for replying. Am i right in assuming that all though the comments are locked people can still submit a comment (which is not shown) hence i still get email notifications for them?

@LunarEclipseSP Whats your post all about? have i missed something?
+1@TheCommentaryGuy There arent any, hardpoint mounts only.
@spikerya thanks for all the upvotes, I'm glad you like my builds.
+1@Liensis @Trainzo thanks for your comments and upvotes, much appreciated.
@Kangy nope, but this was based on the Canberra so I just found a town in Australia that was near to Canberra :) The last build hops up and down hence Kangaroo.
+1@florky Wouldnt that just make it a 2 seat F35 though... =)
@ThomasRoderick Thanks =) Glad you are still here as well. Im still just plodding through some unfinished builds, not really building like i used to hence the times between posts.
+1@Gs Fair comment, i do get the odd build / post that gets a couple of odd upvotes seemingly forever but most do die after a few days/weeks.
@Gs Yeah, i started with imggur(i think thats what it was called), then discord, then steam, they all seem to have a shelf life and then all the links break afterwards (apart from Steam which is just a ballache to use)...
@Gs Thanks =) I do struggle with screenshots, i used to rely on Discord for extras in the text to get a better impression of the build.
@AWESOMENESS360 Thanks for your feedback, im glad you liked the build, it was fun (if hard work) with all those angles etc. In regards to the gun i thought about adding one but then thought it could be added as a pod as per the F4 etc. (i can do a MKII with a gun etc no problem).

Any feedback is good for me as i can add it to the next build / update this one.
@NoahthemanLOL yeah, that was kind if the idea, I like to use bits and pieces of different aircraft to make new designs 😀
@PlaneFlightX cool, that might help when I start restoring my home page, thanks
+1Thanks All. Steam will suffice for now but good to know i have options.
@Randomplayer Fixed. I substituted a few aircraft examples as it was easier than finding the original image. Thanks for pointing all this out.
@Randomplayer I'll give it a go later, I'll update this post first and let you know.
@Randomplayer I still have all the pictures on discord itself i just need to find a new way to host them.
+1@Randomplayer The pics for most of my stuff is disapearing yet the links are still working??? No idea whats going on here. edit: apparently discord file links only last 24 hours now so everything i have posted since imgur started messing up and i moved to discord is now lost...
