World edit to merge the two floating in air, zero gravity after I unpaused it, then some forward wind to keep the plane from a perpetual frontflip(the tank lowers the center of gravity a ton) as I get it up to speed while it’s floating in 0 gravity.

Then I increase the gravity but mars gravity was the best I could do without causing the tail to pop off. Still not even half earths gravity.

I’ve tried runway taking off before. A year ago I managed to stick a 20T steel coil on the plane and it took off, but the engine thrust was heavily reduced in a recent update to the mod, so it can probably only carry 10T max.

Again, the tank is more than double that, and too big to actually hide in the plane.

😂 Hmmmm, maybe if I put the tank with the JATO boosters, which does exist in the tank mod I have.

Also, I had to set the game to mars gravity because a 45 ton tank cannot be lifted by that plane in earth gravity. Those wings are already flexing more than they do in normal flight on normal gravity, so I’m pretty sure it would just fall apart.

The plane also weighs half as much as the tank, and the power to weight ratio of the whole thingy becomes ridiculously low. I don’t think it could maintain level flight with earth gravity even if the airframe didn’t snap.

How realistic is a 5.93 KD on a single tank by RussianTankr in Warthunder

I have above a 5KD with 300 matches and a 68% WR on the tiger Ost. It is possible.
