@Puredeath I just modded this aircraft to have 23 turbofan engines (this one has 9) and my top speed was only around 2170mph! I think this speed is probably the highest speed that can be reached within reason, because at some point adding engines only gets you a couple mph further,which doesn't justify the losses in weight from more engines and fuel
@kikasshes thank you! Yeah it was hard to get more fuel on the fuselage, too many engines! There's enough fuel to make it to the island and make top speed so i figured it's be enough for the challenge
@kikasshes do you have to be able to land it for it to be legal in the challenge?
@NovaTopaz it was inevitable xD
Such a cool idea
@Puredeath ah I see. How do you take off correctly? I cant quite get it out off the runway right
It flies perfectly level when you make the canards semi-symetric as opposed to symetric
Wow. Insane! What is that like 56 engines? I think you win this challenge bro
@Rohan glad you enjoyed it!

@Puredeath well it'll be hard to top that if you can pull it off!

This thing used to have the best flight characteristics of any plane imo, now after the update it's average at best
F14 with swing wing! Make or convert an existing model
Kind of looks like what a modern Russian bomber could look like
@nickasaurusrex yeah that's true
Awesome, bit of a shame it pitches down though
awesome flight characteristics!
Incredible!
