Gen I was WWI all the way to WWII,any and all pistons essentially,Gen II was the Korea War era,gun based transonics,Gen III covered 'Nam,the supersonic missile users,Gen IV was after 'Nam,all the fly by wire goodness,and Gen V was the 1990s onwards,all the supersonic stealth aircraft that were otherwise similar to Gen IV. There's also all those Gen IV+,++,or 4.5s where they try to be economical choices that can keep up with Gen V. It might be fairly unspecific,but hey,it's far better then War Thunders' tier system.

Design request: Modernized OV-10, it should have all of its original feature kept the same or improved. It’s M60s replaced with 4 20mm. An extra Hardpoint on the wings beside the already existing one. Focused on supporting special forces (like dropping off a 9 man squad out of two OV-10s and then later on maybe dropping off supplies while giving light CAS support). Its feature to put a 20mm rotary canon would be cool to keep as an option. And more if I think about! Please I think it would be a cool idea.

@gort82034 ай бұрын
You are correct. On Feb 8 1940 there was a meeting on 262 project definition and construction status. Woldemar Voight, head of the project office, stated in a later interview that that the reason for choosing the straight wing had nothing to do with high-speed aerodynamics: “BWM soon ascertained that is turbojet would be still larger and appreciably heavier than the company’s least sanguine revised calculations had suggested, thus presenting us with serious centre of gravity problems. Aircraft development had progressed too far for us to dramatically revise its layout and we were forced to introduce what we considered a somewhat inelegant ‘fix’ in the form of swept outer wing panels to resolve the CG difficulties presented by the heavier engines. Thus, it was to be purely fortuitous that the Me262 was to become the world first operational fighter featuring wing sweepback; a radical departure that, at this stage at least, reflected no attempt to reduce the effects of compressibility.”

I think it’s interesting how the whole “first gen jet fighters were just prop fighters with jets” is oddly scientific-when using the scientific method, it is most useful to only change one variable at a time. That way, you can isolate the changes in outcome as being (partially) determined by the factor you changed. With first gen fighters, airplane designers and manufacturers would have know well what a prop plane of similar design would need in terms of materials, fuel, and maintenance, but that couldn’t have been the case with jet fighters. So, if they only change the method of propulsion (and as little else as possible) they can figure out what the basic needs of a jet fighter are as compared to a prop fighter, and go from there. (As an aside, I highly doubt this was unintentional, even the military industrial complex has standards.)

I like to imagine generations as a graph, Gen 1 were WW2 jets like Me-262, P-80, Meteore and anything thats post WW2. Gen 2 starts with early vers of jets near the early 50s during the Korean era. Gen 3 starts with aircraft with proper radars and roles assigned to them like F-4, MiG-21. Then certain Gen 3 were upgraded to Gen 3.5 or 3+ (whatever term you like). Upgraded F-4s, MiG-21s, MiG-23, certain jets like MiG-25s, MiG-27 included. Gen 4 starts with better everything but now roles are standardized towards multirole, very few examples are single roles only. Gen 4.5 or 4+ is just lack of full stealth focus. Gen 5 is Stealth. In summary, Imagine a progress bar, some are near Gen 2 but not quite there yet, their still in the Gen 1 category, Some are near Gen 4 but still in Gen 3 category. I.e. Early gen 3, Late gen 3, Early gen 1, Late gen 1, Early gen 4, Late gen 4, etc etc.

Don't forget the jet bombers - Arado 234, Junkers 287, Nakajima J9Y1 and a whole slew of experimentals just after WW2. Also, mounting your engine close to the fuselage comes with bad sides as well as good. The good is reduced engine-out asymmetry. The bad is uneven airflow caused by the fuselage, and how much damage results if the the engine spits out chunks of metal (which happened distressingly often). Possibly also you might risk the engines ingesting gases when the guns fire. This caused issues for several real-world aircraft.

I'm suprised that would didn't use some of the more experimental tech/concepts of the era, like the J37 turbojet, an axel engine designed for the L-133 Starjet, which were supposed to be considerably more powerful then any of their counterparts, and/or the more extreme swept wings of the Me262HGIII which if pared with the previously mentioned engines offer a significant potential upgrade in performance. also, Centrifugal compressors can be seen on later designs, often being pared WITH axel compressors to create what is called a Axial-Centrifugal combined compressor, this is actually rather common for turboprops and helicopters, but since flyout doesn't have Centrifugal compressors it's a moot point anyway.

The problem with the 262 was, too few were constructed too late to make a difference to the outcome of the war.

The first US Military jet was the P-59 Airacomet though. The Junkers Jumo 004 turbojet was used in the Avia S.92, but the Messerschmitt Me 262 in German service during WWII was a BMW 003 or BMW 004 which had a slightly higher performance than the Junkers Jumo 004

You see a variety of WWII aircraft with sweeps on the leading edge, trailing edge, or both to change the location of the center of lift and/or pressure.

A lot of early jet got their basic design modernised with swept wings and more powerful engines. Such as the Fury -> F86 and the attacker -> swift also the sea hawk eventually evolving into the hunter and also the F9 panther -> F9 Cougar.

I'd say the FJ-1 would be Gen 1. Granted it had a very likited production entered production. It went through a serious amount of RND to become the F-86 tho

I always followed the Dogfights scale of fighter craft generations, which had piston engines at Gen 1 and Gen 2 was all the subsonic jet aircraft.

@cplshujumi4 ай бұрын
That's literally how it's taught to aircraft mechanics and flight crew a lot of the time actually! It's an easy way to remember the stages of engine work. Intake (suck), compression (squeeze), combustion (bang), and exhaust (blow).

Always a good day when Messier-82 releases a video. Will you be doing carrier aircraft in this series? Requesting a supersonic stealth attack helicopter that uses canard rotor wing technology for VTOL/low speed flight but turns into an oblique wing for forward and supersonic flight.

As for the landing gear just make it like a U-2 spy plane: just have 2 simple wheels right in the belly and a second pilot chasing it down the runway in a racecar to help land it.

Pretty decent first effort. I would've done the Gen 1 with different goals in mind. For ex., one engine in the fuselage w/intakes at the wing roots; landing gear set in the wings, opening outward for a wider stance. Ideally it would simpler to maintain, use less fuel than a twin, and be easier to takeoff & land. Kinda like an F9F Panther, a late '40s design featured in "The Bridges at Toko-Ri".

I have nothing intellectual to say about gen 1 Fighters. But the Meteor in WT slaps. It's got enough power to climb in to a nice altitude, and excellent manoeuvreability to out turn most planes on the first pass. And it has the optimal armament.
