That's so fucking cool
Is that even based on real life design?
Yes. Jet version didn't even get to the drawing board, though.
I really need to know who the main artist is, really nice artstyle.
Wonders of Julia's holes
Hidari. Famous for Fire Emblem, Atelier, and some anime such as Sasamisan@Ganbaranai.
Thanks!

Any mobagefags here? What's the story for the games?

One last time
S2 better have Kyrie in a flying flapjack.
S2 never.
>S2
there's still hope bros, and mobage ONA this month.
Anyone know why the Kotobuki thread from about 14 hours ago with like 30 posts got nuked? It better have been a glitch or something, because from what I could see there were no rule violations.
I’ll happily buy the Blu-ray if Sentai provides subtitles for all the YouTube content.
Could you post an archive link please?
I thought it fell off page 10 if I didn't see you post.
Maybe OP did some shit elsewhere and all his posts got nuked
Seen it happen before
It looked like a template thread.
came here just to say Il-2: 1946 is the GOAT of combat flight simulators
OHAYOUBUSA~
Thanks. Sucks that the mods just delete/autosage shit randomly.
I thought it was as always the intention for it to be jet powered, just that they were nowhere close to developing an engine that would be sufficient.
Still think the prop version looks cooler, but it really would’ve needed to be contra-rotating to counteract all that torque.
I wonder what happened to Malo-chan
When will we get another show that fulfills every manly man's fantasies like this again? I wish we lived in a world where I can just buy a propeller plane, jump in and join a mercenary corps.
It sucks, I know. This is what being born to late feels.
>mobage ONA this month
Have they announced a date for that yet?
I forget most of the names of the kusoge girls, but I’m intrigued by that tall one who dresses even more autistically than Kate, and would like to learn more about her. Also hope we get to see the short-haired flat one bullied mercilessly for looking like a boy.
Who
The weirdo in front here is the first one I was talking about. Afraid the boy(female) who I wanted to see bullied had too stupid a design for me to bother saving, but she’s definitely been posted here before.
This guy makes nice Kotobuki edited videos.

Guys please help, something's wrong with my Shinden.
Ah, so that’s her name.
And my bad, should’ve at least acknowledged that she’s apparently quite the heroic weirdo.
>50 planes raid new stage.
Holy shit. I hope you guys have that healer SSR reona / SSR self heal chika / SSR shielder Isaka.
She looks like she smells of piss.
Yes but it's not enough
Is the game even fun? You don't get to do anything but set the planes and equipment. The AI does circles too and it's retarded.
Anoon, dont do this to me. I might end up wanting to play it.
If only Isao was here...
Then we could kill him properly.
It’s turning chibi!
Manual or auto battle ?
Keep in mind A.I sucks at hitting multiple target with skill.
Auto
Managed to do it in 2 passes and now I'm not gonna touch it again because it annoys me. I got the gold dodo from the event store already anyway and the rest I can get from the second stage.
You can only do the stage twice a day, I forgot to check what the loots is, but perhaps there's something good in there so they only let the player do it twice?
My 2 run netted me gold plane parts, and I can't check the stage information anymore today.
There’s only room for one piss queen around these parts...
Emma is the piss queen. That mobage tard just doesn't know how to go to the toilet.
OST when?
Soon, I hope.
>Emma mentions once that she needs to go to the toilet

You know, with that title, one might think Reona's character song was Emma's.

In our world. The blueprints for the jet shinden might have been drawn up in Ijitsu.
Agreed. Or a new rival in a Flapjack to make Kyrie no longer able to fully enjoy, if not outright hate pancakes.
It’s neat how the only two characters with last names just so happen to be named after the show’s advisors.
>Or a new rival in a Flapjack to make Kyrie no longer able to fully enjoy, if not outright hate pancakes.
Fernando would end up marrying them before the season is over.
Somehow the three chicks in the show with the largest freaking chests don’t have much lewds of them...

>I wish we lived in a world where I can just buy a propeller plane, jump in and join a mercenary corps.
Post-WW2 would be your best bet for that. Allied powers had a fuckton of surplus, and the Western Powers were fully willing to just sell it off because most of it was fucking obsolete anyway.

>Nazarin pilots IRL
Huh. I wonder why Masuda's equivalent character didn't survive past the first episode's engagement. Or at least until E7 when the Four Hayates of the Apocalypse made their first appearance in the show.
it's likely yet another forced gook meme
What would married life with Kylie be like?
Halp. my Bf-109 got raped by a P-38 and gave birth to some weird mutation, wat do?
By the way
I still want proof to support this claim of supposed durability.
>ignore 40mm fire
And is swedish, put it out of its misery.
Season 2 should have foreign planes
Honestly i sometimes wonder if the SAAB engineers of the 40s and 50s picked up every foreign disinformation campaign like it was legit research and then just forced it to work anyway. (Sort of)
Either that or really good/bad drugs depending how you look at it.
Just pray it doesn't get bit by a vampire as well.
GRIPEN IS A GOOD GIRL
There's no reference to 40mm fire in particular, only example we have of the durability is the thing taking several hits from a wrecking ball.
Looking at the structure, though- only things that'll kill it are taking out both ailavators, both engines, the pilot, or one of the prop shafts - and those are pretty sturdy, the only real points of failure are the gearboxes in front of each engine and the where the shafts turn forwards. Even a fire wouldn't spread easily, no vital components behind the fuel tanks or engines
Maybe midway through S2, perhaps. But keep dredging up obscure as fuck Japanese planes for at least the first half. There's still a bit more to go through.
Here's hoping for other SEA nations to have their planes featured first, though. Or other obscure Axis/Allied designs.
>January 2014
BRUH
Nice chart, but you're a day late with it.
Gripen is a wannabe F-16, just late to the party by about 20 years.
So, barring lucky hits, Kyrie actually runs out of ammo before the pancake plane breaks? What about v. Snek Zero? Same general deal?
the plane I was waiting to show up
Basically, yes. It's not hard for a plane to aim for the cockpit, though (at least if given the chance in a close-range dogfight)
Ooh.
Ooooooh.
Hagoromo + Kotobuki Squadron + Nazarin Squadron (+ Naomi)

Who wins?
Chaotic, yet erotic.
ah fuck
I just realized who KYLIE reminded me of this whole time
>The blueprints for the jet shinden might have been drawn up in Ijitsu.
No. Sweden. The SAAB J21, the only pusher fighter to reach actual service in WWII is also the only fighter to be successfully converted to jet propulsion. The airducts on that animated jet show the animators copied the rear nacelle of the converted J21R with the DeHaveland Goblin engine from a Vampire.
I see it.
Who?
A irrelevant non-canon character from a show wholly unrelated to kotobuki
You're non-canon.
>the only pusher fighter to reach actual service in WWII
Except it didn't really, war was already over before it even started to be delivered.
>irrelevant non-canon character
True, but...
>a show wholly unrelated to kotobuki
...I wouldn't call the previous successful military equipment autismfest that made this one viable "wholly unrelated."
So is it canon that the oceans drained away by the wormholes ended up in Haifuri and that's why 80 percent of the land is underwater?
Has anyone mounted a radar inside a ball turret to create an airborne CIWS?
The B-52's rear gun had a radar, but I don't think it's as automated as a CIWS.
Looks like Reona got a nice memento from the butlers ki-64.
I've tried to forget I watched that but did they ever mention why everything got flooded?
Why are the Kotobukis like this? So selfish.
It'll buff out.
With all spares exhausted, I'm wondering what Zara will be doing now, since her plane is at the bottom of the Ikesuka oasis. Or to a lesser extent, what about the other three pilots that got shot down? Any spare engine parts?
Dunno. Never watched it either.
Still regret not picking up HSF Harekaze when she was available.
Premium Akizuki option, or USN 5"/30 with IJN T9 torpedoes? Wew.
Was surprised his brain didnt turn inside out on this one.
Not that I recall, but I only watched the anime when it aired. Haven't gotten around to the OVAs and any side material that may exist.
>5"/30
Think it was muh global warming or something along those lines
Fascist and-or Commie leaders are naturally impervious to contradiction errors in double-think, and how they could apply to them.
Isao was a state capitalist, not a communist and he was right trying to impose order into the anarchic societies around him.
Bombing these ANCAPs was fully justified.
Kill yourself, bootlicker.
LARPer please go
>anarchic societies
No proof of such.
>impose order
It was peaceful before him.
Do you believe his and your own lies? Either way you should castrate yourself for being so stupid.

OST in 5 minutes
This was around as early as the B-36, with the radar acting mostly as a rangefinder to reduce the amount of manual inputs the gunner needed to make to get an accurate firing solution.
The guns still had to be aimed and fired manually, but the targeting computer took care of the lead.
She is closer to Kyllie than Yukari
With a fully united Ijitsu, could Isao lead a successful invasion of any country on Earth that is not Antarctica, Haiti, Poland, or New Zealand?
Where were the radars located?
>aimed and fired manually, but the targeting computer took care of the lead
Please explain.
where
Targeting computer tells you where to aim, you still have to physically aim the weapons at that point and fire them yourself. Was that such a difficult idea to grasp?
>Targeting computer tells you where to aim
With what kind of interface?
Only the tail gun had radar; it's in that little pointy dome between the gun and vertical stabilizer.
With the rest of the turrets you'd first have to line up a series of dots from your gunsight over the target, then follow it for a bit to calibrate the firing solution.
Rude, but yeah pretty much.
This article explains it better than I can. Different bomber and gun caliber, but same concept.
Hope this means they'll finally have no choice but to at least upgrade to Ki-43-III's. Courtesy of Elite Industries, of course.
5"/54's for Harekaze, btw. I was close to buying her myself before realizing the only way to preserve my sanity and bank account was to fuck off once and for all from WOWS and anything like it.
Speaking of Under One Wing, bet you'll never guess what was giving Generic Tsundere #44 here so much trouble...
I’m gonna have to give this a try now.
There was some resource under water, and they tried to get to it (like frakking) but fucked up and the world got flooded.
That's what's all bubbling up from the cracks in the OP.
Nah, Kylie isn't a crazy arsonist chunni. She seems more hotheaded and self-serving than Shizuka, though each have their strengths and weaknesses.
wrong
but Femlet is clearly an Asuka too.
J7W1 bubba'd into J7W2.
Good; they REALLY shoulda had the Ki-201 instead.
Why?
Ki-94-I is another obscure prototype I’d like to see in S2. Wonder if it inspired whoever designed the engine nacelles of the Ijitsu airships, because I don’t recall any that utilized a push-pull configuration in our world.
>mercenary corps
I thought they were a vigilante group.
they're a merc group, the old lady whatshername even said they were free to leave any time.
>Allied powers had a fuckton of surplus
Which was all scrapped, leaving no surviving examples of certain aircraft from the most significant conflict of the modern era.
>and the Western Powers were fully willing to just sell it off because most of it was fucking obsolete anyway.
That REALLY came back to bite us when the Norks invaded.
>Bf-109 got raped by a P-38
laughing Adolf Galland dot jaypeg
>forced it to work anyway. (Sort of)
That is to say it worked, just not particularly well.
Don't discredit SAAB so easily, for such a small nation they were on the bleeding edge of aircraft design during the post war period, with many pioneering aircraft designed and produced.
I'm assuming he either mmisread or mistyped 20mm, which was being considered for its main armament as an alternative to the usual .50s. As for the wrecking ball, you should've mentioned that the first drop actually bounced off, so given the structural integrity typical of early war Japanese aircraft (none), that claim is actually plausible assuming it doesn't hit the props or knock off too many control surfaces.
>Which was all scrapped
Wrong, thousands of aircraft were sold on to the civilian market after the war. Everything from transport planes for civilian airlines to P-51s and F4Us to individual aficionados to custom redesigned PBY Catalinas as luxury cruisers for rich people. See pic related.
It's less expensive and far more reliable than the F-16, yet still maintains a performance competitive with the latest variants.
What has she got in her mouth?
>It's less expensive and far more reliable than the F-16

>Who?
>not Literally who?
You had one job, user! ONE LOUSY JOB!
Yeah, dunno where he's getting that idea.
The entire concept of warbird racing would not exist if it weren't for the US selling off all their surplus fighters after the war.
Pretty sure that would've actually severed the entire tail section, to be perfectly honest.
It's universal amongst dictators and tyrants in general.
When.

>B-36

if the B-29 sucked, why did the soviets decide to copy it for their first strategic bomber?
>chunni
Why'd you give that second u a half-turn?
What's going on in here?
Keep it within the same period as the rest of the aircraft. Also more feasible to field since they would've received the designs for the plane and means of manufacture from Japan.
>Wrong, thousands of aircraft were sold on to the civilian market after the war
And where are they now? That's right, the vast majority SCRAPPED!
The possibility of post war planes being able to find their way to their world is more exciting though.
>XF-7U
>-
How do you think they figured out how to prolapse it?
hahaha
Most jet fighters will prolapse a prop bomber, with or without knowledge of the inner workings.
But they'd have no means of keeping them in service since the war would be over and Japan would have no need to outsource since it's no longer raining ordnance on their real estate.
It could be that there might be more holes on other parts of the planet.
I just dont want pure WW2 jap planes, that's way too limiting.
Most jet fighters of the era were still designed on the airframes of prop fighters.
Only proble i have is the very slow build up, but i loved how the voices sounds like they are using old radios.
Again, they'd have no reason to outsource because the war is over.
The Cold War could provide a reason.
Best girl's plane.
No.
Real compelling rebuttal there.
Okay.
>not raining ordnance on anyone who designs and produces their own aircraft
i don't recall the p80 coming from a pre-existing prop design, nor the f-86, mig-15, tunnan, or canberra
Yeah but before that they were doing a worse job at it than the Japs did in WW2.
Name some, please.
I can only think of two off the top of my head.
Unswept wings, you dense mufkas!
What does that have to do with your initial claim that most post war jet fighter designs were built on piston fighter airframes?
So, in your way of thinking the A-10 is designed on a prop airframe because it has straight wings?
Uh, EVERYTHING?
That's a ground attack/CAS aircraft, not a fighter.
So far the only image where Zara is nooded
Internet y
>That's a ground attack/CAS aircraft, not a fighter.
We are talking of the design of the airframe, not the task the aircraft in question performs.
Your claim was that
>Most jet fighters of the era were still designed on the airframes of prop fighters.
Name some jet fighters based on prop driven airframes.
Context check.
General wing shape does not an airframe make.
That... makes no sense. Water levels would drop in that case, rather than rise.
It was literally stated in the series that the fighter was a random arrival through a barely-formed hole. In our world, it would have been one of many aircraft in history that just vanished with no trace while out flying.
As for setting up logistics and production of the same, well, there's the whole "if we take this plane apart to research it we might not be able to put it back together properly" idea. And it does sort of keep it balanced with the rest of the setting, with these future craft being stowed away and only deployed when shit hits the fan, or otherwise being extremely restricted in operational range.
Imagine feeling up Kirie's perfectly cute, small breasts
After-the-credits ending has the cast return to Rahama to find it a bombed out ruin. They never did neutralize Isao's bomber force.
He still has at least one G10N, probably two. We see tread marks coming from all six of the hangars at the Fugaku airfield.
While they were off cutting the head off the snake and denying Ikesuka the wormhole, they left Rahama basically undefended. Ki-27s don't count for shit.
butterfingers from typing too fast
What would American Kotobuki fly? P-40’s?
P-36s.
That would be better left for a sequel.
AKMfaceshot_NO.jpg
Are there any flight sims with propeller planes and guns? I want to feel like Kotobuki.
iL-2 BoS
DCS has some prop planes
Il-2 1946 is a much better deal than the newer IL-2s if you don't care about graphics and want incredible variety and endless replayability from dynamic campaigns. Especially with mods involved you can fly virtually any WW2 plane you can imagine.
I'm not exactly a planefag, is that a real model they happened to have in reserve or is that a kitbash with another plane to expedite the repairs?
The idea of a jet engine J7W2 was proposed, but never developed because Japan lost the war. So I suppose the idea is that they took the engine from another aircraft and strapped it on there as a repair/upgrade.
Shidenkai no Maki anime when? Then we can maybe get Ribbon Warrior.
iirc everyone was mining for Methane Hydrate, which led an increase in global warming & subsumation of a bunch of places where the stuff was extracted.
He might be getting the idea from how the Brits scrapped a whole lot of lend-lease aircraft because, due to the L-L terms, they couldn't sell it or pass it off to other Commonwealth countries such as Australia. Rather than incur additional costs returning them to the US, they just dumped the lot.
Oh well, thats the brits, they've always been a bunch of fags.
They melted down a whole bunch of rifles that US citizens had loaned out to them rather than ship em back.
So who was on that jet plane?
Being short-sighted has always been a hallmark of the British government.
Yep
Sunday morning pancakes would be a condition of the marriage
Date nights are dogfights
Also when they adopted 7.62 NATO they took all their stockpiles of .303 cartridges and dumped them all in the ocean rather than sell them onto the civilian market.
Fucking brits, they deserve to get bombet to the stone age for that.
Learned to fly from ol' Joe in a F6F
Stuck flying in a crappy merc outfit in a flight of F4Fs
That decision really came back to bite us when the cod secessionists that raised armed fish rebellion in the 50's
Calm down, Isao
Wouldn't Isao be happy that no civilians could get their hands on scary military grade .303?
And instead of a Shinden, the final baddy tools around in a Ryan XF2R
This reminds me of the budget battles in the '60's between the RN's CVA-01 & the RAF's TSR-2 involving power projection east of the Suez wherein, for a presentation to Mountbatten's aide, the RAF moved Australia 500 miles to the west to fit in the TSR-2's operational range.
"Mountbatten's MA was sprightly and still possessed strong memories of the event. He remembered clearly a presentation from CAS which looked somewhat odd to a man who has spent most of his life pouring over admiralty charts. Excusing himself from the presentation he pulled a map which showed that the type of projection being used by the RAF enabled Australia to conveniently fit into the flight peformance envelope of the TSR-2, thus justifying the strategy. The MA advised Mountbatten, pulling him out of the meeting on another pretext and the game was up."
The sad thing was, CVA-01 was cancelled in favor of the TSR-2, but the TSR-2 in turn was cancelled in favor of buying F-111's...which also got cancelled because of a budget crisis.
Arguably, the decimation of the British aerospace industry was caused by the UK MoD's White Paper of 1966 which stated that everyone should pack up and go home because missiles would replace manned aircraft.
And to an extent they have, but it only took 50 years
>I don’t recall any that utilized a push-pull configuration in our world
On blimps- no, but they was used from WWI on planes, and was pretty common on flying boats in 20's and 30's.
I think you mean 1957. At least everyone agrees that Sandys was a gigantic idiot.
Oh, my mistake.
To an extent, but there are still roles that require a human in the loop. If we really could do everything by missile, I doubt there'd be so much money being invested into manned aircraft still, by all relevant powers.

I WANT TO FUCK A PLANE
Got any specific plane in mind, or are you just a slut?
But how?
Aight, prepare yourself
Boeing 737 Max
That slut goes down on everyone.
Cute fish.
Either a displaced JASDF pilot + Union henchmook to make sure the pilot didn't get any funny ideas; or two random Union henchmooks that got a flight lesson from the displaced pilot before Isao disposed of the aviator.
It's a one-man plane.
We saw two ejectees pop out from it before it augured into a building.
That was the canopy.
Surely a JASDF pilot would stay on bomber Isao's side?
Jet shouldn't have been roped into the trap. All previous times it had remained at street height only to fire shitty rockets before climbing again. Why remain flying level this time, especially after blowing its load, instead of bugging out and RTB for reloading?
Oh. So it is. That never crossed my mind for some reason. Damn. There goes a few potential threads.
Sure. Until someone says something about what happened to Porokka's population. Or Shoto's.
Who knows, the pilot might be just as murderhappy as Isao or Kyrie, could be on board with an ends-justify-the-means perspective, or they could be a standup member of society who believes that warcrimes = bad. No way of knowing.
The absolute madman who could tame a XF-84H ThunderschREEEEEEEch would make a worthy final boss for the Kotoburgers.
Torturing Kyrie with that noise.
Yes hello where is the soundtrack
Reading the wiki article, it sounds more like a cruel joke than an aircraft.
Is it Kylie, Kyrie, Kirie, or Kilie? What is the proper spelling of Little Miss Pancakes' name?
>no KYRIE

I’ve got a better webm of this scene but can’t figure out how to phonepost it
Ooh, it's that "the fuck is that noise" plane. The one that makes ground crew projectile vomit, shit bricks, and develop incapacitating headaches during taxiing, takeoff, and landing.
Completely forgot that existed.
Warthunder is pretty good for jumping into something for free (we have KTBK squadron), IL-2 probably a better choice for simminess though.
What about the pilot?
what a shame. she was a good plane. what a rotten way to die.
youtube.com
IIRC after the test flight the pilot refused to get back in it.
They suffered too.
And that was just with one plane. Imagine the effects an entire flight element would have, let alone a squadron.
Might even become lethal if exposed for too long. Trigger haemorrhages and aneurysms. Or insanity.
How does the pilot even concentrate while in the air?
Do we have sales numbers yet? Does it look good enough for a season 2?
I want to protect Kyrie's smile.
>Does it look good enough for a season 2?
user, I...
BDs aren't out yet
I want to protect Zara’s booze.
Does anyone actually like Zara?

Everybody loves Zara.
That's the problem, yeah.
Was she actually a lesbian, /u/?
Possibly.
No. Nobody does.
People only Kyrie, the goblin and the autist
I like Zara. Sure, she may be an obvious thot, but it’s not like the other girls didn’t suck some dick for flight lessons, pancakes especially
>thot
Fuck off.

Use whatever term you want. But Zara ain’t the only one who’s taken literal miles of dick
I agree, Leona was obviously in a similar line of work when she met Zara.
If Kylie were in the J7W, would she be able to beat Snek?
No.
Is this that psychological warfare thing I heard so much about? Throw some microwave emitters and laser dazzlers on it and you've got yourself a flying warcrime.
Obligatory
No, because she cannot into boom and zoom.
She will inevitably try and turn-fight, and will get her ass handed to her. With butter.
It needs to be a drone plane, though. A human pilot would just have a seizure and crash.
no but it's okay because I'll do it for her
As long as it war crimes the enemy enough, you can accuse the enemy of torturing your pilot thereby violating the geneva convention.

She still have boobs

>flying warcrime
Well, that settles that, guess we know what Isao will meme in the penultimate episode of S2.
The bubbajet Shinden appeared to turn fairly well, though. Could she win vs Snek with that?
Why is that baka in a biplane?
That Chika is "High Mobility" type, and akatonbo(?) have the best turn rate.
It's a built where you want her to survive as long as possible by maximizing her turning to evade enemy in her tail.
>High Mobility type
Char?
If Isao had sent Kylie and Chika off on an isekai back in the fifth episode, would he have won?
Perfect right, akatonbo is red too.
Joke aside, the game classified the characters into type.
Front Line : Mobility / Evasion / pseudo-tanker.
Rear Line : Attacker / Healer / pseudo-buff/debuff.
No
Considering the Shinden prototype only made a few very brief test flights without even raising its landing gear, is there really enough data to get an accurate idea of its handling characteristics?
All I can find on the subject is that it pulled hard to the right under full throttle and had vibrated excessively.
If given enough time to iron out these early issues (along with proper high-octane fuel), what is the likelihood of it performing anywhere near as well as it’s been memed to?
Japanese is Kirie, since the world has Jap culture it's probably Kirie and also she has black hair = asian.
Her name isn't written in kanji iirc.
Japanese planes were literal UFOs.
No they weren’t
I just noticed that in the preview for the upcoming short series, there are what look to be airship hangars and an airship under construction in the background.
I wonder if we'll get more insight and info about them.
It would have been fast-ish. And having four 30mm would give it an impressive punch against bombers. But it would probably get shit on by late war American fighters

Minimizing damage by taking the hits in a non-critical location?
I just ordered the soundtrack CD.
Thinking about it, if it wasn't some kind of HE round, does that actually work? Its not like modern missiles which will just wreck your plane. Although I wonder what happens if CUDA ever gets mass deployed.
pretty much every part of a plane has something important stuffed inside (fuel tanks, hydraulic lines for landing gear, control surface wires/pulleys, ammunition magazines, etc).
so its not really plausible, although there are some lucky individuals who've managed to land critically damaged aircraft safely.
yeah, that was one of the guys i was thinking about. the eagle is basically one big lifting surface mated to two powerful engines.
pls rip
Wonder what it would be like with that new wing NASA and MIT came up with recently, although its not like people still use much low caliber guns nowadays to shoot planes anyway.
This thing is straight out of Ace Combat 3.
news.mit.edu
Of course, both MP3 and FLAC when it arrives, if nobody has ripped it before.
What if you can make a plane thats round like a pancake?
What if you made a plane that's a donut?
UFOs?
Never heard of it.
>ancap
they have roads there
Today I will remind them yet again.
Despite what memes may lead you to believe, private roads are a thing.
I don't know if it's modeled to any other games than WT. There it is great at energy fighting. Handles well in high speeds, but it is wasted on low altitude fights against lighter opponents, which can maneuver and accelerate way better. The guns of course make it one of the best for headons and taking out bombers.
Some planefags told it doesn't lose much speed on shallow turns, because there isn't tail with rudder and elevator.
It might have very different stall characteristics than conventional planes, but Isao's moves were totally pulled from ass.
You'd have to first lose most speed, then fall with little control, score a lucky hit or straighten your plane to get energy back. Either it can't even do such stupid upward pull turn Isao kept spamming or it would rip apart.
On the speeds that Hayabusa I flies and fights, a Shinden would be only a training target.
OST out yet?
>I don't know if it's modeled to any other games than WT.
As for appearances in games, the Shinden is in World of Warplanes, and the model for the Shinden used to be in World of Warships as the upgraded fighter for the T10 IJN CV, Hakuryu, prior to update 0.8.0 and the end of RTS CV gameplay. It has since been replaced by the SEKRIT DOKUMINT A8M rocket strafe destroyer massacre bitch plane.
However, new carrier gameplay does not respect specification limitations, and all planes behave the same. Unfortunately.
>rocket strafe destroyer massacre bitch plane
questionable...
The Ki-84 is in the files as well, but the operation in which it appears is currently unavailable.
You can goddamn bet I want to mod it to look like an Ikesuki Hayate, though.
Ditto with reskinning T6 CV Ryujo's D4Y2 to wear Elite Corps livery, and T8 CV Shokaku's B7A to appear like Isao's Ryusei.

HE DBs are better at doing that.
is this period accurate 1940s yufang underwear?
I remember learning of the XF5U’s existence during a Halloween event years ago. IIRC, it was the fighter for that haunted T9 CV that showed up in T5 matches.
Only in Japan.
Japan was undergoing a materials shortage by 1943, so who the fuck knows.
The British had to stop selling skivvies to civilians on the home front because they needed the material for uniforms and bandages, and they had a better industry for that than the Imperial Japanese, so once again, who knows.
To get this thread back on topic, did Chika just... leave her stuffed Anomalomomochristwhatthefuckisitcalled to get incinerated in the Harugu... Hagoromo explosion?

No way.
You know what would have been le epic troll against Isao? If he had a second uptimer jet - a F-4 - kicking around with a full load of AIM-9s. The problem? These are first-generation Sidewinders, and promptly fly off in pursuit of the sun when launched, leaving the jet unable to do fuck all to the Kotobukis due to its decisive lack of guns.
That depends on the type of Phantom.
Even if it was one of the variants with no internal gun, it still has its wings.
The idea of an unarmed F-4 flying around pinballing into the Kotobukis and tearing apart their flimsy inferior planes with its sheer mass while giving no fucks is really hilarious to me.
Mid air melee.
It's giving me a boner.
>it still has its wings
There was enough ramming in that episode already, but sure. Who would get rammed? Emma?
Hey! That's against the rules!
>muscle cake F-4 physically bulling the shit out of womanlet Ki-43’s
Holy shit, that’s hot as fuck
A man of taste.
Kyrie would get it with some stupid move.
Goblin has her chances too, even if she goes down with it.
F-4 is fat! FAT AND UGLY!
Not surprised somebody already did it.
>mfw
F-4 is the second-sexiest jet fighter ever made.
game?
You're the second-sexiest jet fighter ever made.
Tomcat module for DCS.
youtube.com
Are you hitting on me?
F-4 shows up, ripple-fires its missiles off - and they all fly up and out of the city, in the direction of the sun. Maybe some mook fighters on both sides get accidentally shot down by the munitions, but that's about all the usefulness gained from them.
Pilot immediately goes for the ram and knocks Emma out of the air. She of course survives.
The other two Kotobukis in Reona's element are forced to evade the recklessly charging jet, with more than a few close calls along the way, and are only saved by plot-enhanced maneuverability.
>get it with some stupid move
Eventually either Reona or Zara spot a very tight space between two buildings and go for traversing it. The Phantom pilot, suffering from target fixation (probably going for Zara's tail), does not see the danger until it's too late and plows straight into the gap, with the lower (or upper) half of the plane being smashed against one of the buildings.
Maybe I am, tough guy.
I'm sorry, but my heart belongs to somebody else.
The nice thing about jet fighters is past a certain point, the specifications of the plane no longer matter because the pilot becomes the limiting factor.
It doesn't matter if your plane can pull 12g maneuvers- the meatbag inside cannot.
prop planes don't come with macross style gadgets that transfer G forces to hammerspace
How does that sound? It provides a callback to Episode 4 in which Hideaki evaded Zara by flying through a narrow crack in a canyon wall (speaking of, how'd they get the D4Y to use it on the oil well fire after Hideaki disappeared with it?).
Though I won't lie, the idea of a single F-4 bitchslapping every Hayabusa in Ikesuka airspace while winchester does indeed provide quite a lot of amusement.
>It doesn't matter if your plane can pull 12g maneuvers- the meatbag inside cannot
GRIPEN IS A GOOD GIRL

Prop planes can't HANDLE 9G maneuvers, the wings rip apart and your canvas-covered wooden balsa plane explodes into treats.
She won't come back, Johnny
I ain't Johnny. Tomcat-chan is the one who left me, not his faggot wife.
Phantom, go back to /GAF/
Kei, same as above
Do you happen to have an image of the Elite D4Y (Suisei) and/or one of the Black Hayates, with the background removed like that?
You can get them all from the anime's official website.
>kotobuki-anime.com
oh my fuck they have orthographic view of the airframes
that's real fuckin' nice
She probably kept Malo-chan in her cargo compartment for good luck, so it's just a matter of whether she was able to retrieve him in time after being shot down.
Actually I got the idea from the yanks (i.e., my own country) scrapped a whole lot of war trophies rather than preserve them in museums, and a lot of those we kept are standing on display outdoors where the elements can corrode them away.
We seem to have inherited it.
Better than the pos we ditched that program in favor of. Speaking of which...
>the TSR-2 in turn was cancelled in favor of buying F-111's...which also got cancelled because of a budget crisis
Limeys dodged a huge bullet with that decision.

That's what the US Chair Farce's bummer mafia said about cannon. Look how that worked out for us in 'Nam.
As was McNamara, though we still have yet to acknowledge the same about LeMay.
Everyone involved in designing that thing should've been dragged out into the street and shot.
Same with that, but include in the brasshats who greenlit it in the first place as well.
Just another one among myriad reasons why I loathe my country's military.

It's got red in its name despite actually being orange.

This lemon turkey sucks so bad, Kirie could shoot down four of them in a turnfight!
Explain why non gun equipped Navy Phantoms did just as well as Air Force Phantoms with guns.
Well...yeah. Jets are always going to lose a turnfight. Anyone who doesn’t boom and zoom in a jet is a fundamental retard
> Anyone who doesn’t boom and zoom in a jet is a fundamental retard
Yes, exactly my point

Poor bait. Bait so bad it doesn't deserve a response picture.
Off-boresight aiming. Kylie still eats a fucking AMRAAM, even if the fuckstick in the cockpit decides to initiate a turnfight.
Shit, I want a drawing of Kylie deep-throating an AMRAAM now.
Wow, inertia starter is really small, I though it would be much bigger rand heavier.

Some time next week at the latest.
If a kind user could give off the names of these planes in order from left to right, top to bottom, I can rip all of the important images, name them properly, then offer a zip file.
I'm still waiting for an artist's interpretation of KOTOBUKI PHANTOM PINBALL.
Kotobuki crew chief is a dwarf. Obviously it'll look a lot larger in her hands than it would otherwise.
Kylie is... what, 5'1"? 5'2"?
One moment.
>Kylie is... what, 5'1"? 5'2"?
Don't do it user
How can Natsuo even turn that?
>>remove odd tier carriers from game
Wait, what?
Not handle, mechanism itself.
She's strong.
For you.
The faster you try to turn it, the heavier it gets. Slowly is not that hard.
The tangible wrath of crew chiefs
Imagine being sodomized with an intertia wrench by the midget.
Nah, I’m not into midgets
You should be.

Talking about carriers brings up an interesting point. In Episode 6, Kylie takes off from a plateau about the length of a fleet carrier's flight deck. Does that mean that Kylie is technically carqual'd?
ARR ROOK SAME
Terrible.
Feel like Reona's arc was never properly resolved
>He wouldn't betray us right?
>I will talk to him
>He betrays her
>No follow up on that other than her crashing his butler
I mean story wise I guess that's resolved but I feel like there should have been some more focused character resolution too.
Leona was working on the base as a pilot, Zara sucked the pilots dicks to make money
Well one time Leona goes to get her dick sucked and Zara teaches her she doesn't have a dick.
Much obliged user. It took a while to hammer out the kinks but I got all the planes and all the styles to go. 163 images. Where can I upload this to?
Hey, if you have a general design that works, why not use it?
Look at how every fucking non-EU-Western and SEA destroyer/cruiser nowadays is a fucking Burke clone (meanwhile the EU is busy slapping pyramids on every non-flattop boat they have for some reason).
And the Japanese probably say the same about Yankee planes too.
>I mean story wise I guess that's resolved but I feel like there should have been some more focused character resolution too.
It feels slightly obvious that Episode 12 was rushed.
For one, the quality in ACM went down considerably, with more anime-physics combat leaking in (example being... Isao's superbubba plane in general, or how Kylie was zipping around through the bridge supports at absurd speed) instead of the mostly-realistic combat of the previous episodes.
how do trees even survive in a world where most of it is barren wasteland? their seeds would have to spread incredibly far to be sustainable I think

It's a Type 100 transport/Ki-57.

Gives it a reduced radar signature.

what is his fucking problem
why can't he design a normal looking plane
That's what everybody else is doing. If he did it too, he'd just be some boring faggot.
Do the characters have official numbers for their height?
Short explanation: They're lazy as fuck and only want to balance four tech tree carriers per nation instead of seven.

>for it's time
Top and bottom middle physically upset me, but the rest are pretty cool.
he's just leaving drag behind bro
Seriously though the beechcraft starship and rutan voyager are cool as hell designs
god could you imagine all the different things you could bend Kirie over on?
Don't forget his budget A-10.
Could a Ki-43 launch from a Nimitz's steam cat with no issues?
would probably rip off the undercarriage, that is if they could even jury rig a mounting interface between the landing gear and the catapult.
I had no idea he ever tried for a military contract, that's really cool
Scaled Composites still does work for the defence industry.
Now I kinda want to design planes.
Shiden vs Hayate
Which is better?
I'd like to, but I'm a mega brainlet.
Anything more complicated than everyday arithmetic just goes over my head.
Frank looks better.
Imagine fucking her inside the fuselage space of her plane while Natsuo works on the engine out front and tries to pretend she can't hear Kylie's moans of pleasure.
>Type 4 Fighter (Ki-84)
It's called Hayate you faglord.
Hayate was able to go toe-to-toe with Allied late-war fighters; and once it got high-quality octane-rich fuel in it, it was in a completely different weight class compared to literally every single Allied fighter out there, with trainee pilots shitcanning Allied aces during testing.
Those things had minimal structural integrity, the thing would snap like a twig.
Based user, thank you
Maybe he's trying to supplant Clarence Johnson as the king of novelty aircraft designs.
Six of one, half a dozen of the other.
I don't see your aircraft designs taking to the skies, user.
I love this globina so bad!
Hayate was easily better than the shiden, and beat a lot of the planes in service with the allies, but still wasn't really in the same class as the latewar allied fighters. P-51Ds and F4U-4s outsped it significantly, let alone P-47Ds.
Ki-84s were good but they weren't that amazing. Hellcats still managed 8.5:1 ratios estimated against Ki-84s and "equivalents" like the Shiden. At least according to the Edward M. Young, "F6F Hellcat vs A6M Zero-Sen"
Look at the tests the Allies did after the war, when the Ki-84 actually got good fuel put into it. It mopped the floor with Hellcats, Corsairs, Mustangs, etc.
What about Bearcats?
Isn't she a little young for that?
