In a world where the laws of physics no longer apply...
and airplane wings look even more stupid!

More or less recreated the stats of the original as best I could and added perfectly square wings because that seems totally sane. NOT

I also added aireodynamic cowlings to the rocket pods and slightly lengthened some of the control surfaces to cut into the air better at high speeds.

is it ok if I use this as a drone for my VIP Cruiser if I give you credit on my upload?

Ok, well, to be honest there was a bit too much technical lanugae in there, but I get the idea. I'm about to download the plane, by the way.

Before it looked slightly less stupid* [citation needed] ( http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=604487340 ) but the nice looking wing sweep tends to freak out due to the phantom force bug in the update from January. High concept aircraft construction standards such as wing delta/sweep and dihedral (slanted wings and kenards) angle aren't currently modeled. Meaning triangular wings dont actually improve stability and reduce drag at supersonic speeds the same way the do in real life. The square-wedge wing design is faster in FTD because drag is currently modeled by air displacement (via two-dimentional profile and SOME simple A.O.T. angle of attack calculations) rather than air compression (taking into acount things like shockwave forces, vaccum drag, and turbulence).

Wait, do the square wings make it faster or something? I'm not really an aircraft-making-person in this game, so I wouldn't know.
