This is my Spittlefire Mk VI that is based on the legendary WW2 plane Spitfire.

That looks a lot more like early MiG designs, no kidding!

Just finished this beast

It is a (currently) LKO-SSTO, but with the added twist of doubling as a VTOL

(You can see the round caps where the down facing VTOL rockets are mounted)

I plan on tweaking it a bit in hopes of making it a more viable ship for long distance/interplanetary use... as of right now its basically only good for orbital rondevue and re-entry missions. or with an orbital refuel i can take it to my Mun Base (VTOL is so handy for that since its located in a deep crater )

for lack of creativity, i call it LKSSTOVTOL... The Lord of Acronyms.

P.S. for an extra challenge, Toss me some ideas for more acronyms to add to this thing lol.

this is the FA-37 talon (little based on stealth film aircraft and vf-19 excalibur)

Album of my first flight with the K-38 'Forger'! My first VTOL, and second aircraft made using B-9.

[Pyromaniacal]

I wonder if I could impose as to request a craft? I am looking for a ship using B9 that can carry 4 additional Kerbonauts and 10 tons to 125km orbit, returning the same. I just spent 5 hours trying to get that gorgeous space-shuttle look and feel, to no avail. I failed miserably to get off the runway or launchpad.

I have B9, Quantum struts, KAS, and Procedural Fairings. I don't use FAR, but am debating whether or not to use it, and I don't mind MechJeb.

Thanks in advance!

Pure B9 shuttle. Carries 6 crew and 2 pilots. I can do some work on it to get payload but it doesn't have much in the way of rocket fuel to spare. I cannot promise any results on that dept.

For full info on it and all my stuff, go here:

Sierra Space Industries - [sSI]

EDIT: It has been updated since this pic as I am actually using a modded B9 install. B9 cockpits and SAS units do not have enough torque so I had to manually bump it up (had to do this to many mods; mod authors, we need torque!)

[BigDog]

I got a little carried away and stacked up parts as high as the VAB would go.

It has a "control and power" section in the center batteries, reaction wheels, and generators.

it has some nice DV so I hacked grav and infinite fueled and flew it out to edge of Kerbin's SOI. I figure I will see if I can get a grand tour of fly-bys out of it.

B9 Aircraft and fuel truck. I dont know why but I have been doing more kerbin exploration than anything lately. I have a couple of kethane bases setup around and i use this cargo plane to deliver most of their stuff in the way of supplies. It is about the best plane I have made in this game, it is well balanced can haul some decent loads and likes to cruise at 20km at 800

These are nice!

[fcdrifter13]

I built the mother of all ugly today. I call it the B66 Open Kasket. It is a open fuselage design that I hope Will lift all of my odd objects around kerbin. It sits up kind of high so it can get loaded and it is a bear to get in the air, and it is forever slow even at full throttle. I only got to 250m/s before I just gave up trying to go fast lmao. It has 7 or 8 KAS magnets that need even more power than I would have ever thought when all active. It is however surprisingly rigid see how its part count is almost tripled by struts and i-beams.

[cesarcurado]

what generator?

I really don't remember

I just googled "military aircraft name generator" or something like that and the site I used came up

[fcdrifter13]

Just made this, you cant fly it, but it does exist.....

I saw this post and thought, "A B9 Exclusive ships repository! No Way!" So here is my addition to it. It will also be my first post on the site

This is my Saratoga Class Battle Cruiser, almost exclusively B9 parts it is a multipurpose vessel that is functional (with unbreakable joints).

Features include:

Hypersonic Main Bridge (W/ Battle Ready Mode)

2 x functional cargo bays

Multiple docking ports

Extreme Air brakes (Like seriously these things will drop you into a planet if your not careful with your atmo-breaking)

Reverse Thrusters for easy maneuvering

V-TOL Capable (Stability assisted with Hover Lazer Network, those are the pink ones)

Remote Fuel Transfer (Yellow Lasers)

Active Scanning LIDAR (Green Lasers)

Beaming Capabilities

Sun Beam Lasers

At Launch It Weighs 430 Tons with a TWR of 1.5, and at 1/4 Fuel (Enough for Mun and Minmus Round trips) weighs 235 Tons and 2.5 TWR. It will land on Minmus and Mun if your extremely careful or for the less patient with No Crash Dmg turned on. I have not confirmed landing on any other planet or moon yet but those with less then Mun gravity shouldn't be an issue. It uses landing legs and V-TOL + Hover Lasers to land and take off safely. A Kerbian launch is possible with only Unbreakable Joints IF you park a huge stack of Jumbo's on the Runway and link the fuel to the ship using Resource Transfer Lasers, Launch ship from launch pad and use second set of Yellow Lasers for Afterburner effect, BUT it's possible! Easiest way though is Hack Gravity, Infinate Fuel and a 20 degree climb from the runway. Will land and launch from low gravity moons with precision piloting and a perfect landing spot. Mech Jeb and the lasers help a ton.

At 748 parts the lag is pretty bad, it would have been better without the 200+ lights that cover its hull but I have a thing for the dramatic. A potential redesign is on the way one that I hope will not use any cheats what so ever.

I will try to put up a link for it tomorrow, after work it is too late to figure it out right now.

[Boamere]

Well, here i am again and er..i guess this can be here (it only has 1 b9 part), its the KIG-15 and well its pretty fast to put it lightly

yeah its going at over 2km per second in atmosphere (with very low fuel) !!! I was shocked at how fast it could go, i had to fly it in the sweet spot 22000m-22400m for it to work without running out of air (it only has 3 intakes !) so I was pretty proud of that .

Also I turned my KIG-15 into a SSTO as well (now using more than one b9 part yay)

and it worked!

The moral of the story :simple ssto's are the easiest to get into space

Oh and Jaxx Blackfox thats awsome XD

have you ever played X4?

Not yet, only X3 Reunion and X3 Terran Conflict.

Hi guys, newbie here

There are some absolutely amazing design in this thread, it will surely feed my inspiration for the month to come.

Meanwhile I can already present you the Arkalis.

First ship I made that I'm actually not ashamed to show

[Sapphire]

I love this thing.

Oh my god I love it, it's just so perfect

Here go my pitiful attempts to recreate it and end up crashing a million Kerbals into the soon-to-be-increasingly-cratered surface of the mun!

[Dimetime35c]

These ships all look so cool!!! Wish I was so creative!

Yes, the wings fold.
