    The next feature isn't going to exactly be a main episode but it will shed info on a kerbal who might be the leader of the RDF, and possibly a reason for why the KSP got its budget cut way, way, way earlier in this comic! At the risk of sounding like a broken record, should I make the title crawl or would it be better if everything was left alone?

    This episode promises to finally explain some events that occur in the earlier episode of this Series! What do you think about a title crawl for Series 6/7? What I mean is that the earlier series are quite... different from the current series, and maybe for new readers it might be easier to read a short description of what has happened so far and jump to the newer parts than reading through the older series.

    I built a huge 2016 sign and blew it up. In other news I messed with @Columbia's Titanic with torpedoes and rockets and in general it tends to explode rather violently or lists over.

    I patched up the interstage on both the Ares 1 and Ares V and chose to use radiators. The Interstage also separates cleanly in one piece!

    Finally restarted work on at the least the moon part of the Constellation pack and it went pretty well! The main problem is a relative lack of fuel in the Orion and the Altair lower stage but I was able to finish the mission (with some cheating). Any suggestion for improvement?

    I think I meant the vertical stabilizer, sorry about that. I'm pretty sure that the Elevon part for it is slightly offset down resulting in its loss, though the fairing survives.

    This is the Swiftbird with 1.5X the passenger load and around the same speed, agility, and range! The Swiftbird Extended is also tested to be capable of 70 kilometers of gliding from maximum altitude. DOWNLOAD

    Included in this installment: A special interview with Wernher von Kerman from the Kerbal News Network! Not just that, the crew prepare to leave Kerbin behind!

    I did release a "Pheonix-class" supersonic jet a fair while back, but it is quite true that I very rarely have released a plane (though I do mess around with them between projects).

    I decided to make a longer version of the Swiftbird with 12 passengers. So far it has managed to keep the same range, but the tail strike problem is now far worse than it was in the early versions of the Swiftbird. Additionally its speed only reaches around 270 m/s, so i'll have to add more engines, but this will use even more fuel. Hopefully it won't accidentally identify an enemy destroyer as a friend ship... How well does the ship turn?

    SWIFTBIRD A useful holiday gift for the average kerbal The Swiftbird was originally built as a plane that flew around the rocket in "The Asteroid Sentinels" as a "news aircraft", but it proved to be an excellent aircraft on its own. The design was inspired partly by the ERJ-145 and flies even faster than it, reaching 300 meters per second (~Mach 0.87)! The Swiftbird lives up to its name, capable of executing high g-force turns. Despite the small fuel load, the Swiftbird has a range of 600 kilometers, enough to safely traverse the ocean that the KSC sits on. If it runs out of fuel, it can easily glide for at least 30 kilometers. Additionally, a round trip between the KSC and the Island Airstrip the aircraft takes 7 minutes (including the time needed to turn around on the airstrip). When a significant portion of the wing was lost during takeoff at the Island airstrip, the craft still managed to safely land back at the runway at the KSC. Be careful of tail strikes though—the plane pitches up pretty quickly when taking off. However the only damage done is usually to the horizontal stabilizer. DOWNLOAD Swiftbird Version 2 The second version of the Swiftbird, with wing mounted engines. Just like the aft-mounted version, it has good speed, maneuverability, and range. (You'll still have to worry about tail strikes, unfortunately) DOWNLOAD More Pictures Thanks for viewing!

    Thanks! I definitely plan to crank out a few more at the very least! I had a lot of fun with The Real Deal, thinking up all the most ridiculous titles and the obvious "klickbait" was just as fun to write as the conspiracy theory with Al Skones!

    The Asteroid Sentinels returns with the preparations for the launch of the Asteroid Destroyer. However, the RDF now has a news site... And it doesn't look particularly good what is on it...

    My recreation of the mutually destructive WWII naval battle between HMAS Sydney and Kormoran. It's my first video i've ever worked on, I hope you like it!
  15. SaturnianBlue
    The movie is officially released!
  16. SaturnianBlue
    Here's a transcript or whatever for the movie: i'd like some feedback on it to see if I might be missing details or anything. (expect a few grammatical/spelling errors)

    I'm almost done putting together the footage, although the cuts are obviously extremely jumpy, which will require more time. The audio is unfortunately messed up because I have to heavily raise the rate the video plays at, which will mean that i'll need separate audio files (which take a very long time), and even that won't align perfectly with the video.

    @kapteenipirkThanks! This couldn't be at a better time now that the filming is now finished (unless I missed something)! The sinking of the Kormoran is now done, and soon i'll start editing the recordings into one piece and start subtitling it!

    The Kormoran sinking And the wreck at the bottom of the sea...
  20. SaturnianBlue
    @kapteenipirk Excellent! Would you mind looking for the part of the battle where the ships pull away, badly damaged? If possible could you look for tracks for when they sink?
  21. SaturnianBlue
    I've gotten to Sydney sinking. I sadly found a blunder which was that the superstructure wasn't as destroyed as I thought in several places. In any case basically all that is left is Kormoran's sinking.
  22. SaturnianBlue
    Filming is mostly done with all that is left being Kormoran's last torpedo and the sinking of the ships. Here's a couple pictures from some scenes so far. Below is Kormoran being hit in the engine room. Sydney appears to try to ram Kormoran but misses. Partway in I added the tweak scaled SRBs to give off a permanent fire effect that lasted longer than the stock explosions and the destruction FX. (Unless of course the SRB is destroyed) All in all I hope to have it finished by Mid-December. (And keep looking for music for the video!)

    HMAS Sydney is out but for those who want a bit more flair to the ship you'll need the small boats on the deck! Since there's quite a few aboard Sydney i've put them together onto one craft. For those who just want it for effect on the ship I recommend welding the boats like I have done for my replica. The motor boat is rather unstable and tends to tip over rather easily. DOWNLOAD As a standalone i've also released the Carley float at 23 parts for general use! DOWNLOAD
