I really liked how this craft turned out, the part limitation definitely posed a challenge, and pushed me to try new techniques. The plane is very easy to handle, and also pretty maneuverable, make sure to try your crazy ideas with it. I hope you like the plane, if you do, please consider leaving an upvote, I put a lot of effort and time to make sure that everything works as intended, thanks c:

    this craft looks amazing to be honest, i detect some inaccuracies with the shape of the very front nose sections but nothing too bad. building it from pictures leads to this kind of errors, however, i repeat, this craft is magnificent, probably the best on the contest as of today. I have touched an F-5 in real life and i can find small differences on the parts that the F-20 shares with him, but still considering all the part limit and everything this craft you present to me is of the highest quality possible, be proud of your creation
