F-104G Starfighter

Description

The missile with a man in it

This build turned out really nicely, it’s my most detailed plane by far! The top speed is only around 280 m/s, but the range should be pretty great. This beast has a part count of 851, so the fps will not be great (6-7 fps on my mid-tier system). Loved the decals so much that I will add them to most of my planes from now on.

Built in the SPH in KSP version 1.9.1.
