My 2nd ever Mig-15(not bis)

[Number 16 Bus Shelter]

I recently decided to play ksp again. First time in about 5 months, had some issues with visual mod installation (I can't stand vanilla ksp's lack of clouds) but eventually got it all ready. I wanted to make a new mig-15 because I recalled the one i made about 2 years ago was amazingly fun to build. Here's some screenshots of the new one. The plane is missing stall fences/strakes on the wings because I couldn't find anything to use for them that I liked. I know, send me to the gulag and all.

The gear is made with infernal robotics, I hate the look of every other gear in the game. Only useful for front gear and larger modern planes. I spent about a half an hour making this system but it was worth it. Could not wish for better.

I also decided that since I used a fairing for the engine block, I might as well make an internal engine. I started with accuracy in mind,

But over time I devolved it for practicality. Added small fuel areas, intakes, and extra engines to make the plane faster. Looks more like an engine to me though, and I like the look of this more.

The plane flies like a dream, loved the build. Am probably going to make an f-86, during that I'll be streaming, and if you want to join in and watch, my steam profile is http://steamcommunity.com/id/adawdga123sad123123/ and my broadcast link is http://steamcommunity.com/broadcast/watch/76561198042846224/

Hmm. I should use those fairings once.

But mine will be 100% stock masterrace

I love the way you made a replica of the engine! Great stuff mate!

Hey, make a Gloster Meteor, or an F-35.

Looks great

How did you modell the cockpit and intake detailes? I started to build a MiG 15 a while ago. I modelled my front like this:

I took an engine nacelle, scaled it to 1.125 along with a small circular intake and placed a cubic octagonal strut with 2 TR-XL stack decouplers on it, moved the strut into the cockpit, then the decouplers outside and scaled them to look like the cockpit holder things. I deleted my ksp to try to see if it would fix some serious performance issues I was having so I can't get the craft again. Sorry

Hey there!  Got any download links?  I'd like to play around with this and try to make a Mig-17, or 19, or a giant metal cigar that goes nowhere!
