Atmospheric Military Jets (Ferram Aerospace Research)

[Seanerator]

Post your atmospheric Military Jets here with a craft file and I'll rate them by the following with a screen shot of each craft and download file:

Take-Off Speed:

Top Speed @ Sea-level:

Top-Speed @ 5000ft:

Roll Rate: x seconds for 360 degree roll

Pitch Rate: x seconds for 1 loop

Weight w/o payload: x tonnes

Weight fully loaded: x tonnes

Controlability: Uncontrolable/Controlable

Controlability at landing speed (60m/s - 100m/s): Uncontrolable/Controlable

Accuracy: Bombs/Rockets travel in a relatively straight line / Bombs/Rockets do not travel in a straight line

How these are rated

Take-Off Speed will be rated by the speed when the wheels lift off the ground.

Top-Speed will be rated by flying straight and level at given altitude with full throttle.

Roll Rate will be rated by how quickly it can roll 360 degrees, averaged from 5 measurements with my stop watch.

Pitch Rate will be rated by how quickly it can loop at max speed, averaged from 5 measurements with my stop watch.

Weight calculated from strapping MechJeb on the side of the aircraft loaded and unloaded.

Controlability rated by how well the aircraft can turn on a certain axis without input from another axis to stabilise. For example, if you pitch up and the aircraft violently rolls left/right requiring aileron input to balance it, the aircraft will be uncontrolable.

Accuracy will be rated by how the rockets or bombs travel.

Conditions:

Must have payload/armament it can deliver

Take-off at below 100m/s

Able to get off the runway (ideal)

Stock parts, with Ferram Aerospace Research mod installed.

Lazor system installed for easier flight speed measurements.

Aircraft:

Single Engine

None

Dual Engine

Bomber Mk II (Made by Seanerator)

Take-Off Speed (loaded): ~90m/s

Top Speed @ Sea-level armed / unarmed: ~270 m/s / 182 m/s

Top-Speed @ 5000ft armed / unarmed: ~302 m/s / 260 m/s

Roll Rate: 9.5 seconds for 360 degree roll

Pitch Rate:11.7 seconds for 1 loop

Weight w/o payload: 15.47 tonnes

Weight fully loaded: 19.67 tonnes

Controlability: Controlable

Controlability at landing speed (60m/s - 100m/s): Controlable

Accuracy: Bombs/Rockets travel in a relatively straight line

Payload: 1.16 tonne bomb, 515 kilogram rockets

Multi Engine (3+)

None

Once aircraft are submitted I will download them, test them, then edit this post with them in it. I look forward to trying your aircraft.

Hey, good idea there! Here you have my F/A - 1 and my Heavy Bomber. The download links of the .craft files are in the forum threads I've linked. Have fun with them!

I actually quite like the designs of your two aircraft, especially the bomber. Unfortunately though, the F/A-1 is difficult and really touchy to fly in Ferram Aerospace Research but the Bomber I'll get around to rating tomorrow, it's 11:46PM where I am.

I'll have a shot at the F/A-1 though, and if you allow me to I'll remove the forward canards to bring lift back behind the Center of Mass (to try stabilize it)

Well, the F/A 1 isn't the most stable jet without Ferran neither, but it's flyable You can try removing the canards if you want, but it won't handle as good as it does with them on...

And I'm working on a more stable fighter, but it has no weapons yet...
