- TOP10 LEGO Plane Sets and their Military Equivalent
A short video, showing a series of LEGO Sets launched by LEGO and the real Military Planes that (probably) inspired them.
I´m personally happy that we have these sets but LEGO only makes them in a disguised form which is a pity.
Unfortunately, once in a while some obscure and "unknown" societies try their best to remove these Sets because they are based on Military designs.

Funnily enough, the V-22 isn’t even an attack aircraft. It’s strictly meant for cargo and troop transport.
And on top of that the LEGO version was meant to be a civilian version.
@@galacticbananastopmotions7292 Wait, there is a civilian version of the V-22 Osprey?
@@AScottish-AustralianM-84 I don’t think it exists in real life but lego said it was meant to not be a military version Idk. I’d love to get one and put a usmc logo on it lol
@@AScottish-AustralianM-84 There isn't.
@@akutuominen5062 true, so far there isn't a civilian version nor plans to make them in the near future.
the jet in the set 31086 is based on the prototype fighter SU-47 Berkut, 2 main forward swept wings and 6 stabilizers.
I thought that too lol
exaclty I said SU-47 too but he said based on game also he showed video from game the plane wings not like this :)
@@Black_Sea_Tiger i think I might make a video adressing this issue. :)
I believe it resembles more of the X-29, and experimental jet first flown by NASA.
@@randomguyoninternetidk4014 oh yeah most likely it is... but when people see it mostly remember Su-47 because its more famous 😅 but yeah the lego probably X-29 almost same 🙂
the "Outcry" on the Technic V-22 was that the Gerbox for it's functions was extreamly unreliable
There was also and outcry from a German peace organization
That makes a lot more sense!
Do you have any idea if anyone made an improved version?
Just like the real one
Its the one featured in this video
How could there be outcry if the set was removed before it was even released? 😅
Lego has made LOTS of chinooks, including a black one for black widow quite recently. Probably the closest thing to an army set we’ve gotten. (I know most chinooks aren’t black but it could be a Special forces chinook)
I might add that to my next video. This video only talked about the planes of the Creator line but I can expand to other themes on my next one.
How about the military vehicles and plane from the Indiana Jones line?!
Not to mention all the Indiana Jones sets
My cousin modified one of the police chinooks to add guns on it lol
Contrary to popular belief, special forces don't just paint all their gear black and frequently use regular colour-schemed equipment
And that is where companies like Cobi come in with sweet mikitary sets taking customers away from lego, as owner of an f-14, f-18, me-262 and bf-110 i can confirm that they are really sweet sets
Yeah i also transitioned from Lego to Cobi because they have everything my heart desired for in the past 15 years, that Lego didnt want to deliver because of muh virtue signaling...
And the part quality is 99% there, and there are no damn stickers, but excellent prints instead.
I do admit that Cobi has great sets and very affordable prices compared to LEGO. Personally, I prefer to make my own designs but the problem of building with LEGO is the price of making a new Model. Some of my ships and planes can easily cost 200eurs to make on a rare color :D
Same for me.I used to be a leogo purest, until I found my fascination for military history and military vehicles. I have the tiger 1 tank, the easy 8 Sherman, the bf 109 (latest model), the spitfire, and the corsair (latest model). They are all quality sets, even their bricks are quality, and I plan on getting some more modern planes, such as the f 18 hornet, which my dad flew. They also just came out with the mig 15, which looks SWEEET!
@@braedynhoward3644 my only problem with Cobi plane designs are their landing gears. Early examples look too large and clumsy. But i think the newer designs are a little better
It's always the boomer parents ruining the greatest things.
If not them,it's the brats who are far too young at the time the parents aren't watching.
And it's such a smooth looking Technic set too...
The v22 was retired because part of the profit from the set would've went to the millitary part of boeing that make the v22 osprey, so by buying the lego set you would've funded the war efforst of the US, it seems normal anyone wouldn't want to do that through a toy brand, use your brain...
Ikr
@@michaelkeaton5394 ,and you think the Americans wouldn't want to do that?
@@NareshSinghOctagonI'm a french consumer i don't want to fund the USA's war effort. Lego is a danish company and does not only sell lego in america, and even if it did, i'm sure not every one would be stoke to have toy that fund war. the USA do whatever they want with their insane cult of war but they better not impose it on the rest of the world, i would've baught the lego osprey if it was not for the gear malfunction and the boeing partnership
Well, Lego sold the Boeing 787 so they technically funded Boeing...
2:35 MY DAD HAS BEEN WATCHING TOPGUN NONSTOP. I KNEW THAT WAS AN F-14 THE MOMENT I SAW IT.
I figured there would be reference to that the moment I began typing.
Lol. Its one of the most beautiful planes ever made
At 2:20, that's gotta be an SB2C. The curved tail design is a signature of Curtiss.
Some say that it looks like the Dauntless too. It seems to me that its an easily adaptable design to many WW2 US NAVY designs. Its a great set, the only problem are the colours
I agree, it's definitely a either a Helldiver, a Dauntless, or a hybrid of the two. It's way too big my minifig standards to be a fighter and has a two place cockpit
Looks kinda like an F4F to me
It also gives me T-6 Texan vibes, as the Texan doesn't have a 'gull wing' (bent wing like the F4U) and it was a 2-seater trainer for dive bomber aircraft.
@@RichardFStripeRendezvous Yeah, it definitely is more resemblent of a US navy dive bomber, I remember when I was like 12 and had this set, I was obsessed with the Pacific war, so I just threw away the rear part of canopy and put a twin machine gun I made there instead, and even made a launching system for the bomb (and the bomb itself), similar to what Stuka had, so the bomb wouldnt damage the propeller.
As far as I heard the V-22 wasn't not released beacause of just being a military "helicopter", but because it actually had the cooperation with Bell/Boing which are Armor factorys and in the Lego AGB stands that they don't wanna support those people. Another unofficial reason was the motor. When using those motors a few times the gearwheel often broke and had to be replaced, what they obviously woundn't let be sold like this.
thank you, finally someone with some comon sens!!!
I wonder if lego will release metal parts to replace those parts that suffer excessive damage overtime
I wouldn't say the Futuristic flyer is based on the plane from Ace Combat rather it took more design looks from the Prototype X-29
or SU-47
Or the Strike Wyvern
It's wings are mostly based on the adfx shinden and the fuselage of the xfa 27
I thought it was Su-47 inspired
Its all explained in this video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.htmlsi=bdgxvyo5ql3pSf5g
I think the biggest trouble for the osprey wasn't so much parents who didn't want it out seeing as it as an "advanced" technic set for 16+ ages but rather the Afol community as the small 16 tooth gears (I think they are 16 tooth the smallest gears Lego makes) striped in the gear box to spin the rotors.
Also what about the Lego city sets the stunt planes and race planes respectively.
The smallest gear is the 8-tooth
😀
They are presented on my other videos 😀
0:57 is definitely more based on something like the A-26 Invader
Maybe the b-26 as it looks like there are less turrets on the top?
Could be. Or the A-20 Boston
Its more like a A-20 havoc
1:58 The Focke-Wulf Ta-154 Moskito actually had an engine like that. It was an inverted V engine, with a round cowling to fit the radiators around the shaft, which resembles a radial engine. Pretty common in german plane design. (see: Junkers Ju-88, Junkers Ju-288, Focke-Wulf FW-190D series, Heinkel He-219, Focke-Wulf Ta-152) Except the Ta-154 is a High-Wing Monoplane design
Indeed, it could be based on the Ta-154 with a few modifications. That would explain the exaust pipes. Thank you for your comment!
It also reminds me a lot of the Ju 88
Nice Hungarian armor roundel
@@jsplicer9 indeed!
The super soarer (this one at 4:31) is in my eyes also heavily based on the F-14 Tomcat, considering it got some designfeatures that are very simelar, like the twin engines, tandem cockpit, variable sweept wings, giant elevators, flat fuselage and twin rudders. Only thing I feel is missing is more spread out exhaustes, angled engine intakes, and the fuselage underneeth the cockpit should've been elevated. But it's obvious that they couldn't include such features both to keep it less simelar to the original, but also since those features might compromise the other features considering it's at such a small scale
The older Super Soarer (yellow one) is a single-tailed F-15
At the time I didnt know it had variable swept wings... now I can see that its indeed an F-14
Could be, yes
The XFA-22 doesn't have forward swept wings, plus it is proportionally way larger than the futuristic flier. It is more likely for it to be based on the Grumman X-29 but with 2 tails instead of 1
I was thinking of the X-29 as well
If we're going real-world, the Berkut is way closer.
I like to think of it as the talon fighter from "stealth"
It´s all explained on my latest video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
@@t65bx25 It´s all explained on my latest video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
3:45 the specifics I saw was that the gearbox was shoddy, and would either wear out the gears or the motor.
True, I've heard that. But when that happens, LEGO prefers to just release the set and send replacing parts to fix the issue.
Otherwise, they could have just open the boxes, fix the issue and re-release it if they didnt have any problems with the set. The boxes were already produced anyway
Interesting comparisons. Some of those larger 3 in one creator sets were nearly spot on yet with no outcry as they were colorful, and marketed as I guess air show jets. Just going to add City has hand a handful of twin rotor helicopters guised up as police transports though number one for me is the twin rotor from the most recent standalone Black Widow set which isn't even disguised for what it obviously is.
True. Its featured on my part 2 or part 3 video
I feel like some of these are just the most famous versions of these. There are multiple types of tandem rotor helicopters, I don’t think it was necessarily based off the chinook.
And the Technic V-22 controversy was because it’s an active military plane, and usually LEGO tries to stay away from active military sets, to at least appear neutral and not favoring one or another military. Makes sense commercially.
So which one could it be? There aren't that many tandem rotor helicopters
Let’s just keep in mind that Lego cancelled the V-22 (Cargo/Transport aircraft) because military, but that didn’t stop them from releasing MANY sets that involved Chinnok Twin blade choppers. Not to mention that one sky police set with a helicopter that clearly looks like a Bell AH-1 Cobra Attack chopper.
are you are “drevniy ukr”? abo saloyed
True
The Lego 31039 Blue power jet is a Japanese project called X-2 Shinshin.
The only problem is that the X-2 is a twin jet engine design while the Blue Power only has one main engine (plus a Vtol engine like the F-35B).
1:29 Su-47 berkut !!!
Its all explained here on my latest video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
Lego not selling military sets...cobi: hold my beer
And they are getting lots of money 😀
1:23 That set is actually based on the Grumman X-29 forward swept wing prototype. It was an experimental aircraft testbed for hypermanuverability.
It´s all explained on my latest video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
and a sukhoy su 47 bekut
I think the set at 1:25 is more likely to be based off the soechoj soe-47 jet
Sukhoi*
Sure
yeah i think so too
That's not how "russian" language works
Its all explained in this video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.htmlsi=bdgxvyo5ql3pSf5g
i feel like the futuristic fighter fits more to the look of the Su-47 Berkut rather than the XFA-27 Scarface from ace combat.
It´s all explained on my latest video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
The military isn't all violent, for example, you can be an engineer, a teacher (instructor), a doctor (medic), hell, you can even be a plumber.
yea because all of these job do not participate in helping the war effort...
@@michaelkeaton5394 this is me saying that the military isn't completely violent.. not that those jobs are supposed to help in such "war"
@@michaelkeaton5394 Militaries aren't just for fight the USCG for example does rescues the USMC National Guard Navy and Army all have done disaster relief so their not just for war
True, you're right. The mission of the military is to protect its people and the Nation
Indeed! 😀👍
1:30 actually the Futuristic Flyer set is loosely based on the Grumman X-29, an experimental nasal aircraft designed to test forward swept wings. It was based on the airframe of a f5 tiger
Its all explained here: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
LEGO INDIANA JONES 7193 there is 1:1 replica of an P-2 air plane (Pilatus P-2 was a Swiss military training airplane used for fighter pilot training in the Nazi Luftwaffe.)
and a 1:1 replica of The D-EKVY ( This airplane was a German military airplane designed for reconnaissance and defense.)
Indeed.
2:21
With the design of the tail, the twin seat cockpit, and the way the gear folds up, I thought that plane more resembles the Curtiss SB2C Helldiver dive bomber.
that was the coment i was searching for :-)
Or the Dauntless
@@joaoonda
I don't see it, the SBD's tail isn't that big when compared to the rest of the airframe. The SB2C's is. There are also small design features that definitely more resemble the Helldiver rather than the Dauntless, such as the fact that the cockpit isn't that far back from the nose on the Dauntless. Put the two side by side and you can see the design differences between them.
@@zachboyd4749 sure, it could be the Helldiver. it´s an option too.
The Blue Power Jet is actually a kitbash of the F-35 which you showed and the F-22. It’s got some features from the F-22 incorporated into the design if you look closely enough (including Elevator shape and Vertical stabilizer shape/diagonal angle.)
True, its a mix of the two
the futuristic flyer is based off the Grumman x29 and the twinblades adventures I feel is closer to the Bell V280 Valor than the V22 Osprey
It´s all explained on my latest video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
Awesome video man! More people need to point this stuff out!👍👍👍
Thank you!
And this is where cobi comes in. Seriously, their sets are great.
I like them too; the only thing I hate is their landing gears, they don´t fit on the wings so they hang under them. A bit clumsy looking
The 60103 airshow set has one plane very similar to the F/A-18 Hornet, though it's a single seater. It also has one that might be based off the Eurofighter Typhoon.
(Edit) The second one looks more like the Rafale fighter, now that I see it again
Hornet has both 2 seater and single seater variants so it's still relatively accurate in that regard
They are featured on my part 3 or 4 video
Indeed
I don't understand why there isn't more military sets,it doesn't make kids violent,it give them what they want really,because imagine you're having a lego dogfight,how cool is it to be able to chip off pieces as the fight goes on
Indeed! But with the Wook culture currently amongst us, its really difficult to release military sets.
I'm pretty certain the V-22 set was withdrawn as it tended to strip and destroy its gears, not because it was a military vehicle
I also think
Removed because of military aircraft. Lego got complaint from German Peace Society.
Official statement, LEGO said:
The LEGO Technic Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey was designed to highlight the important role the aircraft plays in search and rescue efforts. While the set clearly depicts how a rescue version of the plane might look, the aircraft is only used by the military. We have a long-standing policy not to create sets which feature real military vehicles, so it has been decided not to proceed with the launch of this product. We appreciate that some fans who were looking forward to this set may be disappointed, but we believe it's important to ensure that we uphold our brand values.
Thank you for your comment 😀
It seems that it was a combination of the two...
I believe it was a combination of the two. They noticed the gear problem but when that happens, normally the set is still released and they sent new parts to fix the issue. Just a few weeks after it was released, someone fixed the problem of the set with just minor parts.
To me, it was a combination of the two problems, the gear issue and politics
The aviation adventures set 31011 is probably more based off of the dauntless from WWII.
Edit: set 31086 also looks like an su47
Its all explained in this video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.htmlsi=zwEFrcz2gqe6ins0
The Blue Power Jet is still awesome. I got it used years ago and love it. I just want to know how to do those missile builds under the grey one seen here. I have seen those images for years but can't figure out how to do the missiles.
But this is pretty cool in general, seeing all the historical and modern planes that inspired these Lego sets. I think they are more interesting seeing their real-life inspiration.
Indeed. There's picture of that mod on Flickr I think
Very nice look back at some lovely LEGO kits. It's interesting that replica models of actual military hardware are considered inappropriate by some people, while models of "superheroes" and their equipment are acceptable. Of course, I am misguided, for superheroes never, ever engage in any forms of violence. :)
I totally agree with you, but what we can do? :D
"omg you arent supposed to have military planes they make kids violent omg"
Every single toy plane manufacturer and cobi: *intense sweating*
It´s easy for anti-war movements to attack bigger enterprises like LEGO because they can´t really respond. A good example was the end of the cooperation between Shell and LEGO which ended some years ago because of a greenpeace action.
@@joaoonda and apple with the gun emoji
1:23 correction its a su 47
More X-29

I personally believe that set 31086 resembles the x-29 plane. It's unfortunate that lego canceled the v-22 osprey set.
it also slightly looks like su 47
I think it remembers more the su 47, but yes, with that inverted wing design it looks also like an x29

Love it 🙌🏼
Thank you!
The technic V-22 was also pulled because it’s moving mechanisms were breaking the gears inside
Honestly, I don´t think that was the problem. LEGO has already released sets with problems in the past and they were quick to send parts and instructions to correct those issues; also each set goes through a lengthy period of tests before it´s release... I don´t think they would let it go into the market with that major flaw. However, you could be right and they used the excuse of that Anti-war group to remove the set without any major issues.
could you do a documentary about the Greek battleship averof .
I would love to! I might visit Greece next year and I'm planning a tour to the ship and I will make a short documentary after that visit :D
Great. Thank you
Although it is disappointing, I do respect Lego’s decision. The only problem was the osprey technic set was that Lego made a license agreement with Bel Boeing which is in fact a military contractor and that can get into some nasty political stuff for Lego’s behalf real fast since Boeing would be profiting from this. Historically speaking, military contractors are not good people
Recently I read that the set actually have a major mechanical flaw and LEGO used the whole "Public Outcry" as an excuse to remove the sets before they were sold with a defect. Not sure if it´s true but there are a series of videos on youtube about that mechanical issue.
@@joaoonda I’ve looked deeper into those “mechanical failures” and actually there isn’t really a problem if people aren’t playing with the propellers while functioning. If I am being honest there are a lot of other sets in the past where this can happen like for example if someone keeps forcing down a digger arm that is powered by screw gears, the gears would start chipping or if a hydraulic keeps reaching its move limit with motor and the user just keeps letting it click away for more than several seconds. The large tow truck from the early 2000s has a model b that used the buggy motor for functions and it would be strong enough to destroy the gears if misused
@@ragemonster4277 I see, thank you for the explanation. So it seems that it was probably a combination of those two factors that led to the removable of that set.
@@joaoonda that’s what I think so but I believe that Lego really had no realization of the mechanical problem as I think that was discovered a while later from forums that began to gain trend just like the Land Rover cracking differential issue where users would build the engine wrong because the instructions did not specifically to align the diffs that shared the same axle
@@ragemonster4277 Well, at this point everyone is already used to receive updates to fix the mistakes on their instructions from LEGO. I had that issue for the first time almost ten years ago with the Space Shuttle. Not sure if the solution for the V-22 was easy or not to fix, I will look into that (out of curiosity). 😄
3:09 You should have also mentioned the minifigure scale 4439 Heavy-Lift Helicopter
It will be featured on my next episode 😄
I remember as a kid building a jet that looked like one of the blue angels with the "legos" at my grandmother's house, they were definitely some kind of offbrand legos
You mean lego 6331 perharps..
Looks like a F15
😀
😀
the v-22 has two 50 cals on the sides for protection
Again, FOR protection...
@@joaoonda Of course FOR protection...
2:23- I agree, but I think that it looks more lika an SBD-3 Dauntless
nah more like the p47
It's way to thick and big,
@@blackopscw7913 exactly its a p47 agreed?
Could be. Its easy to modify it into the Dauntless
Could be both actually. Its a two seater, so...
The Futurisitc flyer is almost certainly based on the Sukhoi SU-47, although I do appreciate the AC7 nod.
It´s all explained in this video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
Military kits make kids violent...
Releases a dinosaur set that eats human
True, and many other things.
The 31086 could be based on the Russian su-47
It´s all explained on my latest video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
I'd say set 31086 looks closer to the Su-47.
It´s all explained on my latest video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
about the set "Propeller Adventures" (no. 7292, shown at 1:47), it also has a fourth model, which is a V-22 Osprey
I didnt know that! Wow, you're right! I shall add it to my next video!
I wish Lego could just make the sets with the actual colors and names without parents getting offended because these are all really cool and I would probably want them of I were younger
You can still buy them! Why only play when you are a kid? 😀
I find it hilarious that this German peace group complained at Lego for making an osprey
Peace Groups be like:
Putin invades Ukraine: Understandable have a nice day
Lego tries to make an osprey: *Riots*
Really? They weren´t against the Invasion?
@@joaoonda as far as I know, they couldn’t care less
@@joaoonda At first Germany slowed it down probably out fear of WWIII and their new Oil pipeline with Russia
Lego set 31099 resemble an super stallion helicopter and a a10 warthog its a 3 in 1 set
I dont see the Super Stallion, that one is clearly a EC120 Colibri helicopter.
0:54 that more reminds me the A-20 Havoc seeing that the wings are high-mounted and not low-mounted
Could be, with a few modificiations, sure
I always thought the yellow, blue, and white 3 in 1 Creator plane looked like the Dauntless. I liked it so much that I have three of them.
Could be the T-6G Texan too (I think)
Military is a honor not violence
@Evolt Claw- X maybe they are reffering to warcrimes to US, Germany, Russia etc
True
Indeed
😀
“We have a strict policy regarding military models, and therefore, we do not produce tanks, helicopters, etc."
proceeds to make a Sophwith Camel (from WW1) and Lego Creator plane that looks like Lockheed Martin F-35
Yap. Hiprocasy at its best
@@joaoonda E
Fun Fact the airplane in the thumbnail is the same one my brother was making but couldn’t finish it so I built it up fully
Cool!
Meanwhile my childhood was surrounded by military toys
Some notable ones I remember is remote-controlled Abrams, die-cast Willy's Jeep, F-15 model, and a toy M16 rifle.
And look at me, I'm perfectly sane and totally not causing warcrimes
Same as I! I had a huge collection of planes, swords, guns and a few tanks and warships. 😀
As far as I know the osprey was retired because of an construction error that would put a lot of stress on a gear and might brake it and that is why it's actually retired.
It now seems that it was a combination of the two
0:41 Ah, so we can give our little Lego Monarch a Prez.
😅
You may have not looked into it that much however, The Lego technic V 22 Osprey was supposed to be like an RC Type Lego set however one of the gears that was used was a very common gear to be broken which is why it was taken off the shelves and why people were crying after getting the set when one part of the superstructure wasn’t working
I read the two stories. I even read that maybe LEGO used the complaints that it was a military model to remove a failed product before it became an even bigger problem.
I think doing a line of creator expert sets based off ww2 and cold War aircraft would be awesome
Indeed!
I would say the controversy aroung the V-22 was that it was officially a license model, with the trademark from Boeing and all the shenanigans. Lego hadn't done 5 minutes of research to find out that Boeing is also a major military contractor, not only building passenger planes.
Yes, that was the only reason
2:34 it reminds me of the Polikarpov I-16 from the 2nd World War, mainly due to how close the cockpit is to the tail, and the size of the tailfin in comparison to the cockpit.
Could be... a bit big but still
I think the creator aviation adventures set is based more on the Brewster F2A Buffalo, especially considering that the yellow and blue match the old navy colour scheme at the time and the dimensions are very similar
Could be, its another option. I actually love the Buffalo, it was a great fighter on the hands of the finnish pilots.
The first plane is actually based of the F-A/18F Super Hornet too I think, due to it being a two seater
This plane is completely different from the Super Hornet.
1:31 I KNEW IT LOOKED LIKE AN ACE COMBAT SUPER PLANE! Finally, someone else sees it!
Finally! Someone that also sees it!
"Military toys make kids violent" PROCEEDS TO MAKE A GIANT AT AT ROBOT AND A BALL THAT CAN DESTROY A PLANET USING LASER.
Indeed. Lego managers are a bunch of hypocrites
@@joaoonda i agree
I would say that the Sonic Boom is closer to a Gripen than a Rafale because the Gripen’s air intakes are on the side while the Rafale’s are closer to the bottom.
Sure, it can be
I really hope we get another F-14 Tomcat inspired jet build in the future, it’s a truly remarkable design
Indeed!
Bruh the technic V-22 actually looked dope, sad they removed it
I agree with you
The "futuristic flyer" set isn't based off of some video game aircraft. It's based off of the Sukhoi Su-47, which was an experimental Soviet aircraft that never saw service.
Its all explained in this video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.htmlsi=bdgxvyo5ql3pSf5g
2:36 That is a Tomcat... Man, for all that Lego goes on about how they won't do military stuff and whatnot they sure do make a lot of Lego sets based of military aircraft.
Indeed
2:11 no, it's most likely an f-16 because of the egg shaped cockpit, and the f-5 has a sloped cockpit instead.
Its a combination of the two
2:20: that's not a hybrid of the p47 and corsair, that is a near perfect recreation of a Yak-52. The giveaway is the tail.
3:00 while I can see it being an fw190, it appears to be an extra 300 with a radial engine.
For the first example, I dont agree, it has a completly different landing gear. Its closer to the T-6 or the Dauntless.
For the second, yes it could be but with those long wings and radial engine its totally rhe Ta-152. For the extra 300 you need to replace the engine, reduce the wings length and modify the landing gear... there are other race planes from lego closer to it
Lego: noooo we can‘t do military sets, that will make us look bad!
Cobi:
Sluban:
Bluebrixx:
QuanQuan (however that is written):
And there's more...
The Blue Power Jet's side vents and tail resemble that of an F-22, making it sort of a F-35/F-22 hybrid, but other than that pretty accurate.
Yes, it only has one main engine at the rear plus another for vertical take off. So its a hybrid of the two
@@joaoonda Yep.
Also, I just noticed that its wings and elevators are also that of the F-22.
I disagree with a lot of these comparisons but I love these kinds of videos, would be cool to see more on Lego planes vs their real counterparts
Ok thanks but what do you disagree?
I wish Lego could make a military branch for those vehicles
So do I...
The one at 1:26 seems to look more like an SU-47, or the G9 Eclipse from Just Cause 2
It´s all explained on my latest video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
I'm a big Ace Combat fanboy, but idk I feel the set at 1:23 is just a Su-47 Berkut's heavy artistic reinterpretation more than anything, I just don't see the angles fit the AC design but rather looks more like a stretched Berkut
Yes, its all explained in this video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.htmlsi=zwEFrcz2gqe6ins0
I think the plane on 0:55 looks more like a Douglas A-26, i really cant see where you got the resemblance with the ro57
It does have a certain resemblance to the Ro-57 but it could also be the A-26 or the A-20 Havoc
The sonic boom jet looks more like a chinese J-8/J-9 rather than a rafale. The rafale has no elevator behind the wing and the air intakes are half way under the fuselage. On the other hand the J-8 has a delta wing (triangular wing shape), elevators with the same shape behind the wing and air intakes at the side of the fuselage like the sonic boom jet. The J-9 (variant of the J-8) has the elevators in front of the wing instead of behind it (canards). The sonic boom jet has elevators in front and behind the wing, which is really rare for a jet.
Men, you went for a really obscure design. How about the Mikoyan-Gurevich Ye-8?
After getting the blue power jet I noticed that it did not looked like a f-35 because the intake looks like the one from the F-22 Raptor
Still, its a great set :)
The “Futuristic Flyer” gives off some hefty X-29 vibes
It´s all explained on my latest video: ua-cam.com/video/RkyoCGPc4Sw/v-deo.html
The Futuristic Flyer is possibly based off the SU-47 "Berkut" due to the inversed wings

I built that lego set 4 years ago. Haven't even thought about that.
😀
Honestly, I don't care if a plane set was inspired by a military fighter. Fast Fliers was my first Creator set and I wanted to build the primary as a kid because I was fascinated with military aircraft.
So am I 😀
The futuristic flyer immediately looked to me like the Grumman X-29 of the 80s

These are awesome and I had no idea they existed
They still release this sort of sets every year. We just need to keep an eye and identify them 😀
The futuristic flyer thing looks more like the Su-47 Berkut

Just wait like a 100 or so years and LEGO will be able to release our modern military sets since by 100 years they’ll be historical figures
True! Lets see if we are alive at that time!
I’d say the Blue Power Flier is a mix between the F-22 and the F-35. And the helicopter alternate build is based off of a conceptual rescue helicopter
True, you're right
I can’t remember the set names or set numbers, but there are two discontinued technic planes, one based off what I think is a MiG 23, and the other very clearly an F35, both with drastically different colour schemes from the actual planes however
Edit: the mig 23 set number is, or was at the time 9394 and the f34 is 42066, both technic
Hmm, I need to check on that. There's a Tejas fighter but I dont remember a mig-23 technic style fighter. I will look on that
@@joaoonda check set 9394, bright red very MiG 23 inspired, single engine sweep wing jet. Ur right tho it might not be a MiG 23, it just looks like that to me
