  1. The last time i saw stock piston engines they were huge and couldn't be used to power a craft.
  2. Nice landed in the sun and got shot off at 1 km/s.
  3. Well both companies (planetary resources and deep space industries) say they want to start in the 2020s.
  4. Does anyone think asteroid mining will become a thing because there is two companies that are looking to do that?
  5. Does anyone know of a mod that lets you recover stages?
  6. Why do you need two engines? also conventional aircraft do use parachutes. EDIT: are biplanes and triplanes allowed.
  7. Back in 0.23 I had a rocket capable of putting a probe anywhere in the kerbol system but I don't have pictures and my first working rocket (also no pictures) got halfway to duna on its first flight.
  8. Yeah I knew about it you just click around the cockpit I think its like that with other ones as well.
  9. [IMGUR]qQ8jM[/IMGUR] A maneuverable VTOL gunship.
  10. True but computers are different to fighters plus what happens when you run out of missiles? And lasers require a lot of electricity.
  11. [quote name='Robet.G']So this is the gathering place for all the military buffs. I just don't understand all this obsession with fighters and stuff. We're rapidly approaching the death of fighters, cuz there is just no reason to be maneuverable and no need for dog fights. In a few decades well have laser weapons that render maneuverability completely useless. Even now days air combat is all about fire and forget missiles, there is nothing romantic or exciting about it.[/QUOTE] People have been saying you don't need to dog fight since Vietnam and they are always wrong.
  12. [quote name='Van Disaster'] @Ostrich: radome is a requirement because without it planes tend not to find one another.[/QUOTE] Ok that's fine I have another plane im working any way.
  13. Is this fighter ok it works in far and bdarmory AI flies it well but it has no radome because it has no missiles just guns. [URL]http://kerbalx.com/ostrich/Mini-fighter.craft[/URL] EDIT: If you do use it just set the max speed to 250 m/s.
