This is not a plane either.

Fair point, but that also has the side effect of restoring your faith in humanity. We can do great things.

Nope. At least mine has wings as weak points. This is why I simply propose the rule to ban completely clipping lifting/control surfaces inside fuselages.

Try to mount some AMRAMS on that box and get back to me.

No. I mean that box. In the video. No scaling up.

I'd like to see a video of how this monster I made fares before it (most likely) gets banned. It doesn't have rails, but its BDA part count should be within legal limits assuming 2 AIM-120's per rail.

@drtricky 1st I want to congratulate you on a fantastic design! Way to think inside the box (terrible pun I know). That thing actually forced me to change my design a bit. We were close to even, so I ended up dropping the ECM's and adding 2 more Aim-120's and another chaff. Anywho, after those changes I seem to come out on top, but it ain't always easy. I have updated my plane kerbal x if anyone wants the latest and greatest.

@inigma This is why I dislike ridiculous part clipping.

Video uploading now...

Darn, well nose to the grindstone. Gotta keep working on it

[drtricky]

@g00bd0g I named it that because I'm not very proud of it, and so I thought of something in 3 seconds. You gotta admit with the ability to tank that much gunfire, a much better name would be The Flying Fortress.

[Draconiator]

https://kerbalx.com/Draconiator/WW1-style-Biplane - Yep will not load properly yet in 1.1...I'll need KAX to be updated, apparently it does not  use stuff the new version uses.

@inigma Could we mount two Aim-9s and one AMRAAM on a missile rail?

[gag09]

I can't fix it atm but if set to 0 gimbal it should work fine. @g00bd0g.

[Jakerblam22]

So I have a new fighter in development......wow, that BD part restriction is getting to be a real pain. A learning curve for sure! Having to figure out if I want more missiles or more countermeasures......it's a pain.

[Dman979]

Hey @inigma, can we set the firing times for the weapon manager to .1?

ha no. rule states that it can be edited, but only within the in-editor ranges. 1 is the minimum.

Kerbal 1.1.2 you can now set the values in the sph.

Is there any other reason to edit craft files now?

[jrodriguez]

FAR is ready for 1.1.2. I was wondering which ASC series will be for "Realistic" modern air combat! (Maybe RealFuels too!)

ASC will not be using FAR. There are other competitions for it.

I'm testing the Pretender today. ASC-II tomorrow perhaps if all goes well. Just hate everything being so buggy.

[Jakerblam22]

I feel like a dork. Just figured out how to have more than 1 missile on a rail. Is 2 aims and 1 amraam on a single rail okay?

yes. mix and match ok.

[inigma]

The ASC-II Pretender to the Throne has been published on the roster!  Prepare your crafts for submission. Submissions to the ASC-II is now formally open. Beyond this point, you must state you have you tested your design against the current King of the Hill (or Pretender).

Have at it guys!  Match processing begins tomorrow.

 

I hearby submit the first craft to the roster:

The Inigma Industries Battle Dove: https://kerbalx.com/inigma/Battle-Dove

It has been tested against the current King of the Hill, the Pretender to the Throne.
