Thank you. I appreciate the encouragement. I'll be adding details once the basic structure is complete. It looked like the plane was an AN-12 equipped with the STOL conversion kit. The STOL kit has air brakes that can dramatically slow the plane mid-air. The air brakes can also be used on the ground to push the plane backwards to aid taxiing. It was probably a multipoint turn, Austin Powers style. The Admiral has informed the JSDF of what was observed on the island, and will also relay all new information as it's gathered. A special covert team is currently on the island sneaking around. Here's a fresh photo of what appears to be a hardened, underground hangar holding a small air fleet:
I tried to make the entrance to the underground hangar look like vines & stuff are trying to grow over it, but a groundskeeper comes by every now and then to trim it up. I didn't want to hide it; just make it look like it's been there a while: Here's what it looks like at night: There's another chamber beyond the underground hangar. Notice the blast door on the far wall: Here's the machine room that houses the pumps that change the water level of the mountaintop lake: Also, the underground canal from the sea port terminates in a large chamber constructed under the mountain. Somebody plans to install something massive in here: More details to follow as I build them... I mean as I discover them...
O... M... G... They have an old Gen-2 flux reflex reactor, and it's operational: They're not quite as efficient as the newer Gen-3b & -4 units, but it's still some serious hardware, and this is one of the oversized Block II units. What kind of insane doomsday weapon do they need this much power for??
Perhaps just to get the island running. --- Post updated --- I...I know ! It's either Iran or Irak ! It is a military base they have settled to compete with the US , depsite Using outdated equipement.
It's definitely somebody's secret base, most likely some country somewhere... or, it's the lair of some archvillain. It's certainly not the lair of the average, run-of-the-mill villain. Toys like this are above their pay grade. Yes, "Jungle Rock Underground" is a WIP that will eventually be released on the repo. I might place and update a WIP copy of "Jungle Rock Underground on my Google Drive. I haven't decided. I have an experimental map "Italy Underground" (formally "Tunnels of Italy") that you can check out. It has a railway amongst other cool things. Whenever I try out new stuff, I try it here first, so the map is always changing, and will probably never be finished. You can find Italy Underground here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1J5s_tWlxqFXOA8VFtWLK7laUaWuqr6n-/view?usp=sharing
I told you , it's either the iraquis or the Iranians ! They're preparing themselves against the Muricans Using outdated equipement . They are trying to compete with america
Also , sorry if it's off-topic, but it turns out it's actually possible to land a B-25 Mitchell on JRI's vanilla Airstrip. It's quite hard , but possible. I even recorder that
You Can Land one on the vanilla Airstrip, but does require some precision. You you want i Can upload a video of this along with an explanation
Yes, please. I like seeing other people's videos, especially cool stuff. Yeah, I would expect a B25 landing on the normal JRI airstrip to be difficult. That's quite an achievement.
Here , i will redo one with less UI There are two factors to count to have a "succesful" landing : 1. Aiming : the Airstrip is small on a mountainous area and hidden by trees so you gotta know where it is , then aiming right in is a literal olympic game sport : the trees are very close to the airport so manoeuvering is very hard so you really gotta have the runway right in front of you. VERY IMPORTANT THING : Land After the watch Tower and the building on the left side of the runway as it's impossible to precisely got between them . 2. Speed : basically, pull every braking technique the plane has : flaps 100% down , Gear down and throttle to 0%>. You gotta Time very good the speed , too early you'll crash in the trees, too late you'll have to make a turnaround due to not much runway left , or worse. When the wheel touched the runway , use thé wheel brake too. Tip : on Land, turn the rudder left and right, as turning slows down the plane and makes you gain more distance
You Can realisticly enter in , the tree is really just standing in the Middle of it , as if it wanted to give a finger . Tho i think it Can fit if you téléport to the spawn point of the hangar
