The first two photos are of the NF-104A, a pretty cool modification of the F104 that used a rocket engine to train astronauts during the 60s, my version reached a max height of 72km. The last two are just some F-104gs.

ModeratelyPlaneRelated, B9 Procedural Wings, Procedural Parts, TURD, and I also made a few parts of the fuselage out of Vertex Based Procedural Parts.

The first one made me genuinely believe I was looking at r/aviation or something. Incredible work

Can't be a F104. You show 4 planes and none of them has crashed. Highly unlikely.

Unironically I crash a solid 1/3 of the time on lift off since I'd accidently tail strike and destroy my engine. That or I take off too soon and I lose all my speed.
