This operation is mostly classified, but due to it being made by the founder of ZTech(pop into that forum kingdom if you like), it's not going to be fully classified. This Program is hiring, and it does not matter if you are in ZTech. note that this operation is now supported by ZTech, and now Darvin is our Second In Command(only surpassed by me). UPDATE from 2/11/2020: I said a couple days ago, the operation is almost over, but it's not. I have inserted a poll to see if you guys want this to be permanent. it means BlackWing will be under it's own trademark, although Hyperbird(formerly Falcon), Subsonic, and Supersonic are also going to be renamed and sold in two different kingdoms. also if you do want to join this operation, you can simply post things here. no restrictions for now, except if you want these to be under the BlackWing trademark.

Blackwing Bomber.png
File name: Blackwing Bomber
Class: medium bomber
Flight Stability: mostly stable
Codename: Subsonic

mainly a test of a large hawkeye plane control, it took a long time to make as stable as possible for flight and as a bombing platform. Side note: maybe Supersonic will be a better one.

Supersonic.png
file name: Supersonic
Class: Bomber
Flight Stability: very well, please look at the notes for further details
Codename: Supersonic

powered by 11 engines, has some protection to air attacks, the bomber has made it through testing. the added wing tip surfaces are for stability. it does has a short glide time, even when the nose is down, and has the tendency to 'drift' sideways, and do some slight rolling. an excellent bombing platform with good flight time for being a jet only plane. the fuel though lasts around 1 minute(or just over 1 minute), but it's speed will allow you to make a close-range bombing run(Subsonic has infinite flight time, making it good for long range bombing), and return. it could do medium range bombing runs if you feel you need to take the risk, but you might not make it back to your base. the pitch and roll is sensitive, and as a bug I found, the hawkeye retractable landing gear loves to glitch into the ground.

Trying your hand at hawkeye planes, I see. I'll have to give them a whirl. Are you interested in feedback?
yes I am interested in feedback. also I have done a HE plane before, but it failed.
I dont have any delta wing planes but i do have a perfectly stable full he bomber
well, bring it on here if you want!

I spent some time with this one, and I actually really like it. The reason you're pulling right is because the wingtip you're using for the rudder tail fin. The right and left wingtips aren't identical, unfortunately. They create force in different directions. You're using a right delta-wing as a rudder, so you're pulling right. I suggest a tail set-up like in the image I attached. (It is not a snapshot.) I have just replaced the upper spread wings on the tail with plume wings, then use one of each delta-wing as rudder fins. You might need to rebalance some of the weight though.

I'd also make a couple other suggestions. The guns aren't doing anything for you as a bomber. They're dead weight slowing you down and making you more vulnerable in a fight. Trust your bombs instead. Secondly, adding a GSO fuel meter (perhaps underneath where you can't see it) will be a big help for knowing when you need to land. Lastly, this thing can go impressively fast. About 140 mph, so a speedometer would be useful.

This one just needs the tail fix like I described above, and it performs really well! I will attach the snapshot here, so you can decide for yourself.

well, I will upgrade these, and the next one here will probably be the hardest one to make. it's class is a naval fighter, and it will have 1 bomb tucked away. it also will have venture props for forward propulsion. the smaller one, which will be venture only, is going to be build for the Golden Armada, under the name: GA Jumpbird. the larger one code name is Falcon

well, to be honest the subsonic did not have a name until I brought it here.
I made few with new wings, but I do not share tham as I can' t upload them to steam. (Is there anybody who can help me with making share to Steam possible again?)

try looking at the verifying files options, and post this onto the help thread on steam.

Seems like you are not having issues with the new delta wings? sometimes the flaps stop working completely for me. i stopped using them.

meh, they are a little touchy, but in my opinion the hawkeye parts are a little touchy and heavy. so far the only plane that has trouble with them is my jumpjet(coming on here very soon)
