The real thing has an appearance very like the mod you just posted. If I get around to it, I may copy yours and tweak it for either landings or range upgrades.
Downloaded this one, tested, it's Okay NORMAL. Maybe you got hold of someone tweaked plane? Many, many popular copies are out there (perhaps from older versions of SP) that are cockpits overlayed with structures which produce the strange view you report.
Avoid them, there's often popular but very bug-prone.
Okay, I was at 60 % power cruising and level, that's when I watched the bomb re-attach. Multiple runs & higher speeds will likely give better results. Thanks for the advice.
Like it! Flys OK for a heavy model. Suggest: provide & use more yaw control when flying, and the det=1 payload a bit buggy (Payload re-attached to the aircraft model on first try).
Believe this minimalist model stay as is! Succeeded in adding VSTOL engine, new wings + 1000 mph speed but the model was uncontrollable. Deleted that model. The way it is is fine.
Fantastic! Acts as one would hope to for a slow-moving zeppelin that floats over mountains, explores shorelines in high detail, and buzzes the carriers at 400 feet ASL. Doubt this will run on tablets/phones. This is an iMac review.
Flys smoothly with plenty of power! A bit more sluggish than the real deal (I fly them) and you really gotta watch out for that rear tail hitting during landing on the tricycle gear.
Tomin, I already built splike like that for a Mig-21 Fished, and it's addition did nothing to the sim aerodynamics, worse, it caused sim air blockade of any engine directly behind it; an SP "feature". Authros, amen to upgrades since the last update to "Simple Rockets" ruined both spacecraft block builds and orbital mechanics.
Unfinished model, even fixing the rear loading door won't take care of the top-heavy instability of the 4-jet thrusts; try the C-123 with 2 props and the real world underwing mounted jets on same platform and see what you get...
Good try but sorta like an F-15 wings+tails+stabilizers. Your wing issue: reverse the attach point on the wingtips, they must be on the main wing - then they won't fall off. Check out someone else's mod: "F-22 Raptor 1100 mph cruise." It also has the right rear stabilizers required for this model. Good luck, keep posting!
Good job! Love it. Note: use of the RCS relief valves bleed total thrust, and limit the SP speed. This flies sort like the "Have Blue" on SP; check out the "F-22 Raptor 1100 mph cruise" also posted on SP, for comparison.
Great replica! Noted, that you can find an F-22 Raptor (Modified) posted in SP that outperforms this model in speed, handling & altitude. (I think it was called F-22 Raptor 1100 mph cruise.) Dunno how that was done. This SP model is better looking, fun to fly, I like it!
Great! Nit: aileron adjustments will make even better plane.
I notice this is basically a copy of the @kellyJ commuter.

A very good upgrade of the original TU-95 Bear posted. You've gotten the tricycle get balanced, which is not easy. Good job!

Simpler & effective hovering! Suggested tweak - add lightweight secondary forward propulsion (independent of VTOL settings) and see what happens.
Five stars for difficult fuselage integration! (Minus 2 stars, since even with wheels off the model has marginal light control.)
Flys subsonic with those heavy engines, but looks & handles great!
Add power and this one will be fantastic.
Agile, but wobbles and nose rises. Great mod of the original, though!
Nice concept! Won't separate & work overall unless the SpaceShip payload hangs from a stronger wing joint with pilon/detacher combo.
Nice construction and paint; needs more fuel on board.
Built from scratch, hope folks enjoy this SP model.
Buzz the ships in a hang-glider w/pig!
Noted that det=1 also drops the front gear, the model operates well, in general. Good reproduction of the Stuka!

Skillful replication! Works OK on my Mac OSX - and, yes, Yaw control needed.
Sleek design & wings, keep it up!
Great flying workhorse of the era!
How about an 1,100 mph YF-23 prototype version?
Fun in a straight line! About 780 mph at 11,000 cruising. Lacks vertical stabilization, a nit.
Funny and it flys! Easy VTOL ops on my OSX platform.
Thumper is an iMac OSX (Yosemite) environment; very high graphics + fast CPUs. I've yet to try this out on my iPhone.
Like the rear thrusts. Over 1080 mph @ 20,00 ft ASL. Great!
All credit to Allstarhip; this is merely a tweak.
Allstarship, I'll post a model using your name; this project has a lot of growth room. Only minor mode needed to fix stability.
Sharp looks! Fishtails in the air (on my Mac OSX) otherwise great & fun.
Beautiful work! Keep the nose up a bit @ 330 mph or more to achieve in-air launch.
+1Love it! Authentic detail and it flys well on PCs and tablets!

Thanks for helping other out with some of this. See my comments here, also.

Flys well, and the clever wheel detacher implementation helps greatly!
Love this replication! Discovered that this model finally flies when you apply the VTOL thruster nozzles slightly "forward" to keep the nose up.

Five-star looks! Three-star handling, 1 star speed. But I like this remodel. Cool!
