Clipped wing ME109


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I was going to create a film clip about the excessive use of radio from the wingman, but as a funny twist to it i lost a big chunk of my right wing

and sill managed to shoot down the bandits and return to base.

                                                                                                 

                                                                                                      :fly:

Nice!!

 

It's a miracle you landed at all with that.

Congrats.

Nice job continuing to fight and then land back at base :salute:

 

However, for the true "Clipped Wing" effect there should be a certain symmetry ............

I might have had an easier job landing my version due to a more balanced? wing area, so kudos to you. Maybe there should be an "I can't believe I landed that" thread :biggrin:

But you must improve your ability 

A F15 can Land with one wing  :biggrin:  :biggrin:  :biggrin:

From russian side. excessive radio chatter will be removed. Right now it's helping with AI logic...it voices everything it does.

damage model isn't finished yet, that's why you could keep flying that plane

 There are several real life accounts and photos of planes flying with one wing chopped of half... so it is very well possible that it would also still fly in real life. Ailerons can cancel out the lift inequalities of the wings.

It's not a lack of DM, it's supposed to be that way. In RoF, the Fokker Dr.I's mantra is "I didn't need that wing anyways, I have 5 more!" Admittedly such damage does make planes a little squirrely.

You see what the shortage of metal has done to the German aircraft industry...cutting corners  :biggrin:
