This is actually a cleaned up screenshot of my F-11, a jet heavily inspired by the Su-57 Felon. I've taken some liberties with things, but overall it's a really nice plane to fly.
It even handled itself pretty well against other players in my Luna Multiplayer streams!
Lots of mods used, including the new Kerbal PowerPlants mod (in one of the iterations I built).
Kerran forces deployed to Laythe suffer from frostbite, homesickness, and awe inspiring vistas.
Overall 10/10, would conquer again.
These images are from the Kerran Empires Luna Multiplayer playthrough series. We have launched a ship to Laythe (which resides in orbit), and have begun building bases on the surface via the Kerbal Konstructs mod. This allows us to launch crafts from any of the sites, though it doesn't afford us the ability to recover them.
No procedural parts, just lots and lots of parts.
Just a MiG-21 I put together for my LMP instance. I like it.
For years, this craft (one of the rarest of the rare B-58's) and has recently been moved into it's own enclosed building. The years of exposure to the elements have taken their toll on the old girl, but even with all of that time having been spent, she still sits pretty.
This variation of the B-58 was a trainer model, and had been one of the 30 original prototypes converted into one after after being pressed into service. B-58 pilots had to use F-102's for training due to their not being a trainer/instructor position in B-58's. Several airframes were modified for this use, though the tandem seating continued to make it challenging due to communication limitations.
Unlike the other B-58A's in service, TB-58's lacked the escape pod like ejection seat setup.
663 was the fourth B-58 constructed, and is the oldest surviving one of eight airframes left in the world. It's housed in a special "hut" at Grissom Air Museum, and is an amazing sight to be behold.
I highly recommend visiting 663 at it's home Grissom Air Museum.
All I could think of when I saw this poster lol.
Over at the Kerrain Empire discord we took up setting up a really nice LMP server for multiplayer shenanigans, and on occasion we do some pretty chill formation flights from the KSC to a few remote locations on Kerbin.
This flight was to test out a prototype aircraft (POV from that craft) based on a design by u/moonbow_bow.
The F-104 was built by me, and I had to slow down a lot for the prototype to keep up, but it was a fun flight.
At the end when we landed the prototype had a strong disagreement with the ground and experienced an unscheduled disassembly.
They produce this beast.
I was coming up with ideas for a challenge for my discord, and this craft kind of just materialized and so I went and built it.
The challenge criteria was:
I typically use procedural parts, but this build was on my LMP instance, which is not as mod heavy as my main gaming instance.
BDArmory
Airplane Plus
NeistAir
TURD
Squad DLC's
I call it the F-5 Spectre.
Top speed is Mach 3.2
Max operable ceiling is 12k
Swing wings bound to throttle, using the "Sandwhich method" as described by Smooneychad.
Very very maneuverable, very capable medium to long range fighter/interceptor. And the best part...it comes in black.
And I was not disappointed.
This was a dry run for a challenge I'm taking part in on my discord. The ultimate goal is to land on Slate, but I wanted to land on Tekto because I've never actually been there before.
Just like how they did back in the day, except my X plane can achieve an actual orbit. It can get to an orbit of 90k with 1300 meters/sec left over for de-orbiting and landing.
These are a few of my favorite things!
B-58 Hustler
B-52 Stratofortress
B-47 Stratojet
B-29 Superfortress
XB-70 Valkyrie
B-1 Lancer
NB-52A
TB-58A
Flying doritos next? Maybe!
Crew of twelve, Three VTOL capable landers (Ebon Hawk class SSTO)
Just sharing my (current) build of a B-52H Stratofortress. I recently updated the craft with the SXT cockpit because I was able to get my hands on the TURD configs for it.
I might adjust it further because the nose is not pointy enough. But for now this is great, and will work with the D models and older.
