I imagined by S3's excellent Harrier.
Based on Flakiten's HMS Colossus MOD, I'm trying to make HMS Hermes 1981 with Ski-jump deck.

She is only technical trials now.
Hermes shows us many problems exist about ski-jump deck on carriers in IL-2 1946.
Almost aircrafts get crashing not to climb ski-jump with breaking thier nose gears.
As same as ashehouse told us.

Only S3's Harrier !  Harrier's slanted nozzle thrust works a special lifting effect not to crash on ski-jump deck.
But its behavier is strange one, not smart.
We have to solve it.

So, in future, when S3 will solve short take-off problems with ski-jump deck and release his Harrier, I can release HMS Hermes 1981 , but her usage is only for Harrier.
Any other Jets released as IL-2 1946 MODs won't take-off from that ski-jump deck.

If... If ... we can add new evolved functions to Engine MOD not to break nose gears by ski-jump , then we can get full function ski-jump deck. But it is very difficult, I feel.


screenshots....
3D and 2D are not finished.
I can add more detail.

It could help to make deck paint scheme.

My apologize.

Historical Hermes was expanded her angled deck to portside(left side) and move the front elevator as a side elevator.

But I don't have a plan to make its historical style now.
Only attaching a ski-jump deck on Flakiten's Colossus MOD (with small angled deck).
So, its front elevator is inside the deck , in this point I cannot modelize historical markings.

I re-modeled ski-jump 3D and re-touch whole deck 2D.
