I take my replicas a bit more seriously; I try and make the scaling as accurate as I can and, when possible, replicate the flight characteristics. Certain features of the airframe would be more detailed and relative to the real deal as well. For instance, the cockpit glass on the Comet isn't quite right and the dimensions are a little out. That's the kind of thing, for me, that separates a replica from a recreation @BACconcordepilot.
Consequence of delta wing design unfortunately. Any more aft CG and the aircraft becomes massively unstable! Any suggestions? Thanks for the support! @BogdanX
You may be correct in some ways @MASB29 but the physics in simple planes engineering do not quite work the same as they do in real life. Due to the fixed thrust that is produced by the engines in SP and the values of lift produced by the wings (Especially as they change with different aerofoil designs) The values are amplified in simple planes. An F-22 replica in SP should be more maneuverable than in real life. However if you can make an aircraft maneuverable with those sorts of stats (with thrust vectoring or relaxed static stability) than it still has more of a chance to be recognized in this challenge. It's more for fun and creativity anyways.
Just a reminder for all challengers that the submissions should be successors of this challenge plane. Do this by simply removing the cockpit from the 5th Gen (the one on the left), making it a sub assembly then placing it on your project. Or you could just delete the air frame around the cockpit and build around the cockpit. Good luck everyone!

Thanks @niggelas100!
No worries mate! Hope you like my stuff! @BACconcordepilot

It not meant to be a replica, but it does look a lot like the Meteor @BACconcordepilot! :)
Thank you @N124Hawk!
Thanks @phanps!
Thanks @JettStorm!
Cheers @gareth1234!

Thanks for the support @DankDorito!
Looking good @Razor3278!
Wow! what an amazing build @mikoyanster! The attention to detail is outstanding!
Looking good @hopotumon! Awesome take on the old SU-47!
Awesome @RAF1! This one is definitely setting a bar!
Awesome high maneuverability design @RCBOSS!
Yeah @MASB29, I'll keep an eye on parts. No one get to crazy :)
@RAF1, Good choice! @phanps, only one will be scored against but feel free to share your creativity while you've got the chance!
Thank you @BogdanX! Glad you like it!
Thank you @RAF1 for the support! You planning on submitting something?
@ShatSlanger, Not necessarily but it would be preferable if it could operate on as many devices as possible.

Thanks @Athaya! Can't wait to see what you come up with!
Thanks @mikoyanster! I love your creations! Hope to see a submission from you!
@hopotumon, thanks for the support! Hope to see you in the challenge!
@Awsomur, No problem!
No worries @Awsomur. Thanks again and I hope all goes well for yourself.
Thanks for the support @Awsomur! Give the challenge a try!
