I sometimes make planes where there are A LOT of parts. I'm just lazy to press p so many times.

The reason why the SR-71 had no losses is because no plane could match it's range plus speed. MiG-25s couldn't go as fast as the blackbird and not damage it's engines. MiG-31s too. If the F-35 runs out of missiles during a combat, how is it gonna run away. It wings are too short for maneuverability, so basically it can't dodge the missiles. Even if no maneuverability and very high speed can be used to dodge missiles. Yet, the F-35 can barely reach speeds of Mach 1.8(which can be achieved easily by a F-18) and it's turn rate is 22-23degreees / second compared to the 28 degreees demonstrated by the F-22, the Su-27, and the MiG-29.

When I was building some replicas of mine, I realized i could not fine-tune(Shift+W/A/S/D) a part if it was connected to those green nodes. I wanted to put a cubic strut inside a fuselage and have it to be exactly centred. So I attached it to the green node and could not fine-tune it. So I took 45 minutes to put it exactly into the center using angle snap. I hope in future KSP updates this will come out as I don't have much time for KSP and I still want to continue making replicas.

Oh yeah, nice job with the wing! Could I use the wing of the F-15 on my next replica?

Because the US have been exaggerating about their 'Advanced' plane. If you compare stats, the F-35 would be useless. It can only carry 4 Sidewinders without losing stealth. It's slower than my grandma, and it would risk crashing if the engine failed. at least 2-engined planes would stil be able to land safely if one engine failed.

Thanks dude! Now my planes won't look half white half green...

Nice one! I made one myself but im not happy with it

It should be quite clear who's winning...

I use the turbofans because they resemble a lot more to real life engines than the turbojets. Plus IRL turbofans are more quiet and effiecient.

I dont think you know how to insert images directly into the forums. First you have to upload an image/image album to imgur. then you copy the URL of the image/image album. Then you go to the KSP forums and click the button that says 'Insert Image'. Then you insert the URL and add a .png after the URL. Hope this helped:)

[WARNING] Do Not Attempt This Challenge If Your KSP is really laggy Well, you know that ships in KSP are actually .craft files and they take up a few KB of space right? My challenge is to make a ship where it's craft file takes a (at least) 1 MB of space. Even a 100 KB craft lagged my KSP to 2fps, so, please try not to launch the craft(if you want to you can but i wont be held responsible for any damage caused) Rules: 1.Must be completely stock. 2.Can be built in VAB or SPH 3.All I need is a screenshot of the .craft file and its memory useage. 4.I do not need a screen shot of the actual craft in game, because its probably gonna bring KSP down to 0.01fps 5.No stolen craft 6.Have Fun:)

One question. How do you colour the wings? I know you used KerbPaint but I can only colour the 0.24.2 parts I cant colour the new wing parts etc.

Enjoy! DOWNLOAD

Yeah since the wings were so tiny I could not even liftoff... so I had to dump flaps in the fuselage for better performance.

I have nothing much to say. Enjoy! DOWNLOAD

He does not use part clipping cheat but he DOES clip parts for visual looks

erm... meow

Nice job But I think the wing could use a little more work:)

Even though it got super tiny wings it's quite maneuverable Enjoy! DOWNLOAD

Plus the US purchased some Su-27 form russia to test it against their 'undefeated' F-15s. Turns out the Su-27s actually defeated the F-15s in a test where the Su 27 was in front of the F-15 and the Sukhoi's wing had to lightly tap the f-15's engine. I think there were no losses of F-15's because it never actually got to meet with any enemy craft as Saddam Husein cut corners to cut costs so his russian planes were basically useless. Put a F-15 infront of a Su-27 and the Su-27 will fly back to base safley while the F-15 would be upside down on the ocean floor.

But still, the US are wasting billions of dollars to make a 'cheap', 'effective', and 'maneuverable' plane that became the F-35. It's wings are too stubby for 'maneuverablitiy', its stupidly slow for a modern day fighter which means even a MiG-21 is faster than it, it has so little weapon storage(in the weapons bay) that it would be nearly useless. Clearly it would be beaten easily by a Su-27 or even a MiG-17/MiG-19. It's only advantage is stealth. I say it would be pummeled by the T-50 if the T-50 goes into service. But Russia is about as poor as some homeless man on the streets so... yeah the T-50 might not go into service......5 - - - Updated - - - And the russians already have their own AWACS aircraft

I already use KerbPaint. But sometimes I'm too lazy to paint it because KerbPaint is glitched where when you launch the craft only one side is painted:P

Well, that's half true. Russian planes are purely made for aerodynamics, not pilot comfort. So russkies focus more on great planes rather than great pilots while the U.S. has better pilots than planes. It would be easy for Russia to train their pilots to have a strong air force with Great planes + great pilots. It would be harder for U.S. to create better designs of planes to have a strong air force with great planes plus great pilots. However, the U.S. air force has the upper hand now because Great pilots are more important than great planes.

Awesome crafts as usual Mareczex! And I have a question. When will the new F-22 be up?
