Also known as the Schewer Gustav railway/railroad artillery piece, that thing saw service on the Eastern front during World War 2. There were plans to mount it on Maus Chassis', creating the P1500 Munster.
@Beria try and get the centre of mass (red sphere) and centre of lift (blue sphere) next to each other. Centre of thrust (yellow sphere) is unpredictable but put it close to the main wing.
@Beria about 40'000 lb at 300mph with the new engine and wing design. Big Bertha could carry about the same, albeit slower. although I tested the design with the old engines and it broke the sound barrier.
Downloaded this. Expected it to fly normally. Immediately crashed into a mountainside the second I let go of the controls.
10/10 would crash and die again
I wasn't expecting my weeny IPad 4S to even handle this thing. I am genuinely amazed at what has been built here.
Some minor vibration issues but generally good.

@Roadrunner232 it's just a title. I know a fair bit about WW1 but mostly the consequences (emu war, Hitler, ETC)

@Fartspoppop it said 25 parts or less
7/10 pretty good
Can we just appreciate that there are REAL SHIPS that are smaller than this
@RailfanEthan ok first of all that was gonna be fact 4 but now I shall replace that with "@RailfanEthan is no fun at parties"
@BlackhattAircraft because there are no popular Reddit boards for this stuff
Donezo
@Brields95 make your own post. Not trynna be rude
De facto winner
Date has been changed for personal reasons
@engineerier take the cockpit off and use it
6/10 pleasant suprise
Ok first of all I got both My IPad and IPhone are second hand. My iPad isn't supported anymore and my iPhone has a faulty battery sensor.
I haven't flown this yet because I literally just came off a MAD transport tycoon session but that pun is GENIUS
@Strikefighter04 wow that was fast
This is a bloody good aircraft
It has occurred to me that it's actually bombardier beetle
This is literally a tube with wings
Before you ask, the bottom row of torpedoes does not need to be activated
WAIT I FORGOT TO INSTALL THE WEIGHTS NOW IT CANT TAKE OFF
I have an entry. Here's the link.

@Jerba well steamed hams aren't exactly known for their aerial capabilities
For something that looks like a generic civilian monoplane was shoved through a wine barrel it flys very, very well
I'm gonna be honest this thing flys like a steamed ham
This is bigger than 80-90% of my builds
Does this even qualify? It has only 53 parts and the minimum is 101
That's my entire shtick
Ok first of all I can get heavier propeller aircraft to higher speeds
Soggy cornflake.
While I personally don't agree on the design rating it's pretty hard to make 1 of these look good. I know. I tried.
@Rawhide better than expected, worse than hoped. (Micheal Rosen voice) nice.
I FOUND OUT HOW FAST IT IS. 1489MPH at 27k feet.
New levels of autism.
Not bad.
I LOVE THIS THING!
I've built planes with the helium mod that float less than this thing!
Almost impossible to land, but still very good.
