If you need name suggestions for the "unknown" then i have one.
You could call it "Alpha Bird" as a first of a new futuristic aircraft series to come.

thanks for all you nice replies all

Here is an example of a forward swept wing, the Sukhoi S-37:

A couple of notes on Boeing's Sonic Cruiser:

1) If such a design ever gets built, it probably won't look that futuristic - it'll undergo some conservative design changes. Compare the early artwork for the 787 with the finished aircraft.

2) It's not actually that fast - the design cruise speed is subsonic and barely faster than that of, eg, the 707. It's certainly nothing like the speed of Concorde.

Speed of sonic cruiser should be 0,98Mach = about 1150km/h

Indeed - about 100km/h faster than the 707, and about 1000km/h slower than the Concorde.

I think I need to redo the "Sonicruiser" in av8, hmm...

I never said, that is fast like concorde!

did a quicky @ class 87 form BR, see img, i need a front-vieuw bleuprint....

double post so here is the ref-img

I make FFP Hyperdart 2. I know, that is more funny than realistic, but I would try it!

and triple post=> this is refimg with object on it

better imo, make it more square than round, looks more like a japanese action figure then a plane:P

more squaryness on the sides, top can be rounded off....

Squares = Not aerodynamic. Besides, it looks great like that. I can imagine planes of the future being similar.

Remember that those aren't windows in the middle there on the 87, they're grills for ventilation of the engine. I would have thought it'd be more easily done with textures.

Also, bear in mind that the cab roof of the 87 is blended smoothly. Your profile is flat, giving it squared off edges. Google some images... (btw the 86 is also the same basic design - although 3 windows to the 87's 2 iirc)

lolz i dunno what it is but textures are easy to implent right, just form a face where there is nothing atm.....

still no front vieuw, and i suck in modeling:P

Wacki, that looks very awesome! Someone quickly upload it to the OTTDwiki!

No seriously, amazing!

talking about the wiki-> can someone update it a bit, i am REALLY sure we have boats moddeled and the trucks are done by raven i heard... so could someone update that too?

Although there are two engine room windows on the other side...

ok back to my depot: what it better:

textured walls version or the not-textured walls version


imo the not-textured walls look better, blender f*** up my brick wall texture....

ow and i just see that it f*** up a small detail inside-> glass/wall meshes interfear, ill try to fix that in next upload, just tell me what you guys like better (again IMO the one called 1 is better)
