Cant wait!! Longer runway needed me thinks

[SAS~Storebror]

There's been some troubles with the turrets during the past few days, but that's solved now.
Regarding runway length, this in fact has been an issue in the japanese plannings as well.
The japanese considered using RATO pods like the germans did. Maybe the Fugaku will get some, we'll see.
You should note though that in the video shown above, the Fugaku was overloaded, with full bombs load, full gun setup and 100% fuel, and AI was not trained yet to wait pulling up the plane unless it reached rotation speed (that's fixed meanwhile).

That G10N CRP has 5.000 HP engine with 6 Blade Propeller, it needs a Longer Runway, but it’s Weight is too heavy because it’s 160.000 Kg at Max Takeoff weight, too Heavy,

But the Project Z (G10N Fugaku) has 2.500 HP Engine with 4 blade Propeller, it can takeoff at 70.000 kg Less weight than 160.000 Kg.

KT you're talking about the plane as if it was real.
It never was.

That G10N CRP
(...)
But the Project Z (G10N Fugaku)

Now you're mixing up things completely.
You're talking about two possible versions of the plane as if the CRP version and Project Z would be two different planes, and as if CRP would not be a Fugaku.
That's wrong.
Without any claim to completeness, I recommend taking a look at this chart:



The plane we're modelling here is kind of a mix between the "Z" models to the left of the chart and the "ultimate Fugaku" to the right.

6 Blade Propeller
(...)
4 blade Propeller

Just two possible versions out of - at least - four.
Our plane will have CRP with 4 blades each, in total 8 blades per engine.

Your right storebror,  I am talking about the Weight of the Fugaku, It’s Way too Heavy for Takeoff, it needs a Longer Runway to Max Power for Takeoff.


Best Regards KT503

[SAS~Storebror]

it needs a Longer Runway to Max Power for Takeoff

As seen on the charts, 1-2km should be sufficient.
We'll see. Should work with our existing runways and if not, we can always add rato if need be.

Let me tease you a bit: Time for a few development screenshots!
