Yeah, this is an old jet with a few issues now due to all the newer features that has come, so currently the only attachment that'll work are with the older pylons before the weapon DLC.
RAM6 has been updated to the hardpoint connectors, but I'm not currently planning to update this in the near future.

I'm currently working on a new V/STOL jet, in which the F35 is the main reference used.

How do I connect the RAM6? It has a different connector to the aircraft
I flew too far 29 Dec, 2021 @ 4:43am 
its really astonishing how this plane is still so great i really hope that this vehicle would be updated. But i am don't want to push you, you gave this to us after all and i don't want to be rude.
So Cheers have a nice day/holiday.

Can you update the jet to have hardpoint connectors?
Elonovich Muskowinsky 24 Sep, 2021 @ 7:20pm 
Sorry for the late reply, I completely understand. Still by far the most capable fighter jets on the workshop!
Neottious  [author] 16 Sep, 2021 @ 6:42am 
The behaviour you're expecting is called banking - stormworks' physics engine doesn't really allow aircraft to bank, since the reason the aircraft are flying at all is the thrust of the engine. Lift force of wing blocks is not large enough compared to the drag to allow for it. It's also the reason to why aircraft don't glide in this game.

However, the banking effect can be simulated using hidden fins. The downside of this is that you lose a lot of speed, so that's why people don't do it on many creations, us included.

This is one of my fav jets, but I have one issue with it. This issue plagues many aircraft in stormworks and I'm not sure if it is a simple fix: you can't turn it by rolling. This makes doing any kind of turn a huge pain as you have to use the rudder (which doesn't work very well on any aircraft) or roll so the jet is sideways and then pitch up.

It already have aerial refueling, albeit not fully implementet. There's a fluid connector infront of the top beacon, which is connected to the fuel tank, but there isn't any logic to disconnect it from seat.

I'm not going to fix that, so you either have to be heroic and walk on the jet to disconnect once done, or have a random button or something which will do it.
It's actually not so hard to walk on the jet while flying straight and leveled, unless the aerial refueler plane changes heading and start slinging you around.

can u add ariel refueling
GGman2021 30 Jul, 2021 @ 3:38pm 
But If you go above 300 Knots when the landing gears are folding in or out it will break.
GGman2021 30 Jul, 2021 @ 1:40pm 
I fixed the rear landing gear. It's simple to fix :steamthumbsup: But overall this Jet fighter is the best.
Jumper  [author] 15 Jul, 2021 @ 10:36am 
I know. It's just basicly redesign the whole jet to try and fix, so I'm just leaving it as is.
Borderline Autistic 15 Jul, 2021 @ 10:34am 
I tried using the jet yesterday and the rear landing gear don't retract fully, also the bomb bay doors get stuck on the outside and glitch the jet 50% of the time that they're used
Klaus Klavier 15 Jul, 2021 @ 9:42am 
found the issue the Marinos need to be switched from radio signal to PPS3 on a microcontroller setting
Jumper  [author] 15 Jul, 2021 @ 9:32am 
It should work without doing anything, exept line it up so it got the right connectors. I briefly tried it and can confirm that it didn't fire, so nothing on your part. It got identified on the MFD, but I dunno why it didn't fire. Pufferfish has an example, but dunno if u wanna invest time and try to manually make it work on the YV6. I could also just have missed something, but dunno.
Klaus Klavier 15 Jul, 2021 @ 9:07am 
the AF3 torpedos will not fire do i have to hook up some sort of logic?
Borderline Autistic 27 May, 2021 @ 6:16am 
@ethan of the games it's gyazo and it's https what do you mean by "it looks sketchy"
Idiot With A Gun 13 May, 2021 @ 6:58pm 
i figured it out yay
Idiot With A Gun 13 May, 2021 @ 6:49pm 
These missiles confuse me, they usually have perfect aim but i just shot two missiles at a good angle and they didn't lock
Idiot With A Gun 13 May, 2021 @ 3:34pm 
Post it via any other website, it looks sketchy.
Jumper  [author] 13 May, 2021 @ 3:03pm 
You don't need to know how to code, you use the selection tool to copy from a subscribed vehicle from the workshop and line up the electric connectors as shown here. https://gyazo.com/f754986e585cf853610ba713d84bb32d
Idiot With A Gun 13 May, 2021 @ 2:58pm 
I couldn't code the simplest thing.
Idiot With A Gun 13 May, 2021 @ 2:58pm 
Is it possible you can upload a version with missiles? I know how to fly but have no idea how to add more then the default blocks to something.
Jumper  [author] 13 May, 2021 @ 2:56pm 
It only spawns with internal missiles and none on the wing pylons on purpose. You are to place your desired missile or droptanks on the wing, which are already made, like RAM2, RAM6, Droptank or others which support pylon PPS3.
Idiot With A Gun 13 May, 2021 @ 1:32pm 
It doesn't spawn with some missiles for some reason.
CanadianBacon 12 May, 2021 @ 10:26am 
the nose gear wont go down
Nicharbs 10 May, 2021 @ 11:25am 
ok, thanks for the help.
Jumper  [author] 4 May, 2021 @ 2:53am 
@Nicharbs, since the new physics improvement update, the front gear stopped extending correctly. Tried to fix it, but couldn't figure it out, so currently just waiting for a fix, since it can fly in VTOL, unless it takes a long time, we may just redo the front gear.


The VTOL / STOL switch is just a little finicky. There's a short timer on first press, if it's not followed by a second press, it will go VTOL. If followed by a second press then it goes to STOL.

When in STOL mode, if just pressed once, then it goes VTOL, so you have to double press to go from STOL to fixed wing/default/start mode directly.

From VTOL, you double press for STOL, and single press for default.
Nicharbs 3 May, 2021 @ 7:20pm 
I love this creation, but I flew it today, and I think think some parts of the jet may be broken. The front landing gear no longer extends all the way, and the VTOL / STOL switch mechanic is a little finicky
GERusher 15 Apr, 2021 @ 9:10am 
I subscribed to this a long time ago, but never used it, because I did not understand how it worked. Today I have decided to try again, but with more determination. And I have to say, that once you understand it, it's very easy. This Jet gave me the best experience I've ever had in a jet. I was actually able to properly land a jet for the first time (All other Jets decrease in speed so quickly, that it almost feels like flying a helicopter). It rolled fantasticly! xD
It took me some time to figure out how to get the rockets and tanks on the Jet, but thanks to this, I've gathered experience, so now I know how to do it for anything! I have over 110 hours, and always played creative and never built anything... So having figured out this, really makes me happy. Again, the experience in this was the best I've ever had and I love that one can use other rockets too! The only ''weird'', things are the radar and the map. Overall, best jet I've used.

it had the silouette of a su 57 or is it me
Neottious  [author] 7 Mar, 2021 @ 10:03pm 
You might have accidentally broken the pylon. Make sure no part is shown as red while pasting in items with the selection grid.
Kiwi 7 Mar, 2021 @ 1:20pm 
So, I've figured out how to attach the drop pods, but when I spawn in the vehicle they automatically disconnect. Any else have this problem?
Neottious  [author] 5 Mar, 2021 @ 3:36pm 
@Rhyiez, the R15 is only an air to surface missile. You'll have better luck with the RAM2. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2409302463

how to i lock the missile s on somethin

There was a new steam workshop ToS agreement I had to accept for the droptank to be fully uploaded/released after updating it, which I didn't know about, but you should be able to see it now.
Mr_jakobeee 24 Feb, 2021 @ 12:34pm 
please can you put a link to the drop tank in the comments because i cant assess it thanks
Rhyiez 19 Feb, 2021 @ 11:07am 
Are the external missles air-to-ground? They can't hit air targets for crap, but ground targets are a cakewalk for them.
Neottious  [author] 10 Feb, 2021 @ 7:13am 
The internal missile bays count as pylons 5&6.
Quadra 23 Jan, 2021 @ 7:20pm 
I can't seem to figure out how to launch the internal missiles, am I missing something?
Grunker 20 Jan, 2021 @ 6:22pm 
this is for multiplayer servers that you don't own
Grunker 20 Jan, 2021 @ 6:22pm 
Can you make a fully loaded version? two internals, two drop tanks, and two externals?
SirShanova 22 Dec, 2020 @ 11:04am 
Hey there! I'm one of the many that adored the F-35 you built a while back. This plane is great and I'm super happy to see you;re back at making planes. I'm just curious if you;re ever thinking of doing something like the F-22. I had a race with my friend and it destroyed all other planes in terms of speed and maneuverability. And we have over 1500 vehicle subscriptions!

I don't know if you ever would want to make planes like that, but this is just to let you know that they're fantastic and haven't been totally broken after several updates, not to mention the fastest plane I've ever seen throughout nearly a year!
Jumper  [author] 20 Dec, 2020 @ 11:28am 
It makes you flashing white/red on others map, if they can see you there, but you can't see it on your own. https://gyazo.com/5e0cb87e3b0cbdd10b1596c5318cc26d

I love the jet but what does the IFF IDENT button do?
Neottious  [author] 18 Dec, 2020 @ 7:38am 
there are also 2 smaller, shorter range missiles inside
Neottious  [author] 18 Dec, 2020 @ 7:38am 
you install them yourself
