I figuratively got off my ass and made a MiG-15.



I DID have a Turbojet on it but the MiG disintegrated in the atmosphere.

Resource mining on asteroids and planets is really fun

so for some reason i literally can not slow down for a landing and end up crashing into the surface
spaceplanes work just fine, but capsules end up falling at 1000m/s, despite parachutes and lots of engines

KSP: "Aerodynamics aren't forgeted up, your launch profile is" edition.

Keep re-entry angle as shallow as possible, and only deploy the parachutes as soon as the mach effects start to fade.


So I made this plane, that is nothing but a huge delta wing since I noticed that the new KSP aerodynamics seems to play really well with them, and I absolutely love this thing.

You can tear it to pieces, pull mad tight turns and everything. It's awesome. Takes off at a smooth 25m/s. I love it. I'm going to try and make one that can take off at even slower speeds.

I made another one that can take off at 15 m/s.
I call it the 2B-Bad Idea




This is the second time bob has died a terrible death.

at least it took off, that's a success and thus a perfect plane



also here's a photo of my SR-71 when it's not on fire

thanks, now i won't have to put multiple srbs on my landing stage.



how much is it?
i probably cant afford it lmao



You've had like a billion years to get it cheaper during alpha/beta, lol.
