  1. Actually Romfarer, for some reason the missiles aren't decoupling when I stage whether or not I have something targeted. They just make the decoupling noise but stay attached. I have B9 Aerospace installed, could this be the issue?..
  2. Not yet, though it should work as the mock-up I put on it's back @ picture 3 weighed in at 15 tonnes with fuel and engines and it handled that load easily. Granted I did use some detachable rocket power to get it off the ground first. If you do it before me feel free to post a picture
  3. Here it is, the product of a lengthy hangover, a replika of the largest fixed wing aircraft in the world... Antonov 225 Replika. A KSP replika of the largest transport aircraft in the world, and one of my favorites. Ship Name: Antonov An-225R Mriya Type: Transport Aircraft (Atmospheric) Mods: B9 Aerospace Pack / Mechjeb Part Count: 152 Description: Jet Transport Aircraft 6 CF34 Turbofan Engines w/ Reverse Thrust Max Thrust: 1000 kN (225,000 lbs. of thrust) Max Cruise Speed: 230 m/s (~520 mph) Flight Ceiling: 11,000 meters (~40,000 ft) Fuel Capacity: 5,920 units Electrical System: 600 units Continuous Charge Range: ~9,000 kilometers Wingspan: 85 meters Length: 110 meters Vessel Mass: 76.07 tonnes (167,705.64 lbs.) w/o shuttle Cargo Capacity: 15 tonnes / 50 tonnes (tied down) An-225 with it's iconic down sloped wings and split rudders. Real Airplane's Stat Relevance I've been fascinated by Soviet Aerospace lately, here is one of the fruits of my interest. Enjoy This is a replika of the massive Antonov An-225 Mriya carrier aircraft that the Soviet Space Program used to transport their space shuttle (Buran) from the high tech factories outside of Moscow where it was assembled, to the Baikonur Cosmodrome, the Soviet launch site and space center in the high deserts of Kazakhstan. Designed by the Soviet Union's Antonov Design Bureau in the 1980's, it remains the largest aircraft in the world. A Night Shot with the Nav Lights on The Antonov An-225 Mriya (Ukrainian: ÃÂýтþýþò ÃÂý-225 ÃτۄЄÂ, Dream, NATO reporting name: "Cossack") is a strategic airlift cargo aircraft. The An-225's name, Mriya (ÜрiÑÂ) means "Dream" (Inspiration) in Ukrainian. It is the largest airplane in the world; it is the heaviest aircraft with a maximum takeoff weight of 640 tonnes and the biggest heavier-than-air aircraft in terms of length and wingspan in operational service. The single example built so far currently bears the civil registration UR-82060 of its Ukranian operator. The Antonov An-225, originally developed specifically to transport the Buran spaceplane, was an enlargement of the successful Antonov An-124. The first An-225 was completed in 1988 and a second An-225 has been partially completed. The completed An-225 is in commercial operation with Antonov Airlines carrying oversized payloads. It holds the absolute world records for an airlifted single item payload of 189,980 kilograms (418,834 pounds), and an airlifted total payload of 253,820 kilograms (559,577 pounds). It has also transported a payload of 247,000 kilograms (545,000 pounds) on a commercial flight. - Wikipedia Here's the craft file if you're interested: http://www./download/rpbat5ixhpwotyd/Antonov_225R.craft (Don't forget the mods) - Taking off can be a little challenging, but once airborne she is a breeze to fly. - Take off instructions: Engage brakes. Engines on / throttled to max. Disengage brakes, speed to the end of the runway. The airplane WILL NOT take off when it reaches the end of the runway (Do Not Panic), pitch up and keep going. When the terrain starts sloping downward towards the beach, the aircraft will begin to "hop up". Only at this point do you stage, engaging the RATO (rocket assisted take off) and continue to pitch upwards. After a second or two the plane will lift off. Lift off should occur ~30 meters from the sea, off of the runway. Take off is a bit challenging at first, but once mastered, the plane can easily take flight both safely and consistently. Once airborne she is a pleasure to fly. - Landing is simple, just remember SHE IS NOT A GLIDER, lower thrust under 30% at your own risk.. Power down, line up and ease your way down. Powered landings are smooth, and the gear is sufficient to handle the weight and shock. Once you touchdown engage thrust reverse and come to a smooth stop.
  4. Spectacular work! I too have been fascinated by Soviet Aerospace lately and I think it would be great if we had two competing threads, an American Space Program one and a Soviet one, one upping each other. As for my foray into Soviet history here is my replika. The Antonov An-225R Mriya with Buran Mock-up Description: Jet Transport Aircraft 6 CF34 Turbofan Engines w/ Reverse Thrust Max Thrust: 1000 kN (225,000 lbs. of thrust) Max Cruise Speed: 230 m/s (~520 mph) Flight Ceiling: 11,000 meters (~40,000 ft) Fuel Capacity: 5,920 units Range: ~9,000 kilometers Wingspan: 85 meters Length: 110 meters Vessel Mass: 76.07 tonnes (167,705.64 lbs.) w/o shuttle

  8. I have an Antonov 225 Replika I built using the B9 Aerospace Mod. It's so great to fly.
