Blufire13 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 So, on behalf of team 'Murica, I am adding two versions of an attack plane for use on our carrier that is currently in the works.Javascript is disabled. View full album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megalodon 720 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Ok so I'm nearly finished testing the ship...Aaaaaaaaaand I have to build a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScriptKitt3h Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 So, I finished a new gunship....Expect these in a battle soon.Also, before anyone thinks disk rockets can't do squat against modern tanks and other surface units, these ones get up to 250 m/s in only a second or two.Considering the max impact tolerance of steel plate armor is 80 (though it can glitch out on impact, making it more around 100 m/s tolerance), I feel pretty safe in saying that the higher-speed stack rockets beat it.

The Fleet Master Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I guess you based the design off of the 0.24 First Attempt at a VTOL Gunship thread? It's funny because after Spartwo made one I had one in the back corner for Arcadia but then Arcadia died and so did the craft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, it all depends on the context.I tend to think of VTOLs and helicopters when I hear the word "gunship", mainly due to IRL aircraft like the MI-24 Hind, Bell UH-1, and the AH-1Z Viper.

Darthzeus Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Updates on team MuricaFirst things first, as to not cause any confusion from craft registration from other members, the team consists of forum users Darthzeus, Rexmundo, and Blufire13.Second, here's some new craftsJavascript is disabled. View full albumNext up: More VTOLs!Finally, we are breaking our crafts down in to more specific classes of craft, with murica being one of these classes.

And the other thing, accuracy is a huge issue with those kinds of rockets.That's also why no one uses disc rockets in orbital combat. They are simply ineffective.

ScriptKitt3h Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 So, the classic argument over whether or not light rockets are worth it compared to i-beams...In the words of the "Old El Paso" kid, "Why not both?"This VTOL managed to hit a training target (wrapped in dual-layer armor) from the runway, when the target was parked up against the VAB.

Darthzeus Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Another SNSS Nightmare powers up and engages the remaining Scout.<snip>persistyour moveI'd love to know how the SNSS Nightmare became disentangled with the rockets from the Scout Sniper. One was lodged in way past the engine and into the guts of the craft, with the other still connected via phantom forces. The RCS capability of those combined should easily have stopped any accurate orbital maneuvering, bar hyper-edit.Thanks in advance for the clarification ~Darth, on behalf of the Triple Liitto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
