I will be doing non-US paint schemes in the future. Since I was starting with the "Pretty Ones", it was only US aircraft that I was showing. Add to that that the non-US planes look really plain to me with a few exceptions and there wasn't a lot of interest to start with those.OfficerFlake wrote:These just look astounding.
Will you per chance be making models for other countries at this stage (cough RAAF cough) or are you just doing the pretty US ones for now?
actually,the internal cannon version used on -A variant but -B and -C uses gun podMonoceros wrote:I thought the F-35 had an internal cannon? Why a gun pod? I could have sworn I've seen numerous weapons tests of the F-35 having a pop open fairing for the cannon.
What do you think he's using for target practice for the F-35?YSFan wrote:What about the 747-8?
Please, read this comments!decaff_42 wrote:I've noticed in a few videos that the wingtip station on the F-35 is drooped relative to the aircraft. I guess this makes sense when the aircraft is flying around with angle of attack (2nd picture), so I experimented to see how easy it would be to convert the straight rail to a drooped rail. Not that hard at all. The trickiest thing was rotating the static mesh of the weapon and aligning it with the pylon.

Not really. Taking off and landing is the slowest part of the flight. Drag is proportional to speed^2, so the faster you go the more drag you get. Since the F-35 always seems to fly with 5 degrees angle of attack, the missile would be pointed straight forward at that point (like picture #2 from previous post).BARRACUZ wrote:Wow that seems like it would create drag during takeoff
