Alright, I have another vote for you all. "Nuclear" missile, or orbital cannon?

You are a medieval farmer. You hear a loud explosion outisde your abode. You go outside to see, expecting a cannon, but instead, it is a fighter jet, launching several missiles at your small cottage

Reid capitan: the plane doesn't have landing gear and it isn't realistic Also reid capitan: makes a bomber plane in medieval times

Supersonic jet made out of iron bracings and wooden planks, powered by heated water Besiege in a nutshell

Reid is just like Archimedes during the siege of Syracuse. Instead of building a curved mirror to focus the sunlight on enemy ships to burn them, he just built a supersonic jet that shoots missiles.

The fact that you were able to create something that not only works but also looks like an actual fighter jet in a game like besiege is insane. Well done, reid!

With the vacuum blocks you can actually make something similar to a rail gun

I just got done watching him make a helicopter in besiege and now i am watching a supersonic jet being made

I like how he appears to have accidentally made a decent, if stubby, Su-27 Flanker

Imagine you are a medieval farmer and seeing a wooden F22 Raptor with seeking missiles fly above your head

The spring mechanic is very similar to how they launch jets off of aircraft carriers! It seemed unintentional but if you did know, good on ya!

You should use steering rotators instead of the rotating block, because it has a limited angle and can return to center for your elevons and ailerons

The homing missile was awesome, it would be really cool if you developed counter measures for it too somehow

That stubby (MiG-29) Fulcrum imitation looks....kinda cute😅

the more it looked like an Sukhoi the more i smiled

Holy crap, he actually made it look like a plane this time.

Using those vacuum blocks as missile guidance is really clever :O

So I haven't touched Besiege in years. However, I still remember a lot of neat building tips from even way back when. You can make RTC controls using two pistons pushing a hinge on the side of a pivot. What this allows is for you to go straight into certain angles without having to deal with turn blocks. Though I guess logic has improved those. Another thing is the classic "stick some powered wheels to each other and then put propellers on the end" engine. The biggest benefit is that you can have some of the wheels on different controls so you can have things like taxi speed, cruise speed, and afterburner speed. Getting the propellers laying against the final wheel can be finicky but finicky describes Besiege most of the time anyways.

4:20 To be fair, I have yet to see a plane that is rated for crashing into a mountain.

You’re really spoiling us, three great videos in a month!

Genuinely amazes me every time I watch one of your videos. You’re a genius. No other explanation needed.

I saw a comment like this but I want to make it better You are a medieval farmer living on your family farm. Your farmhouse sits on a serene mountain overlooking a flowing river. The sky is fresh and speckled with fluffy clouds. The ground is slightly moist, due to the recent rain. The grass is dotted with little glistening drops of water, and you spot a grasshopper jumping on a leaf. It’s very quiet, except for the gentle hum of crickets and the river below. You look up, and spot a rainbow, and it reminds you of your family, who lives in a nearby village named ashwood. The hum of crickets hushes as there is a loud screeching sound, growing louder and louder. All of a sudden, from the sky, a bomber plane moving at Mach 2 flies overhead, dropping 14 bombs destroying the farm, and the village. Thank you for your patience. You survived at least.

Reid can make an ICBM with just sticks and rocks if we let him

I haven't played Besiege in a while (brain too smooth) but damn this series makes me want to go back to it

I'm very impressed that it surpassed Mach 1! Good stuff

Another insane build. love the aesthetics of the wooden panels and hidden propellers, makes them really pretty and like fantasy-medieval

Besiege developer : I hope our player enjoy medieval battle Besiege player : Let's make Supersonic Jet Fighter 😎

this thing looks so insane wow love the besiege videos!

as soon as you made those vertical stabilizers I got major f-14 vibes and I love it

This video was insanely great, the jet looks so realistic and nice, really well done :)

It looks like the building tools have advanced quite a bit since last time I played Besieged. Pretty impressive build!

8:38 "so far I've been taking off while in the air, which isn't that realistic." I'm glad you clarified :)

Using the springs, do you think you could make something akin to an aircraft carrier? Just a thought

proper component build up procedures right there for the motors, solid engineering

Man just casually makes a MiG or a Sukhoi in medieval times.

You could have used the spring, actually aircraft carriers have catapults to yeet jets off the smaller runway

We have the B-52, Apache, and now the F22

Please, the best part of your videos is when you test your contraptions on different levels, all of the building add up to it, so dont just end the video once the building is done, preeeettyyy pleeasee!

"All of my flights so far have been taking off from the air, which isn't really that realistic" - guy flying a supersonic steam powered plane made of wood

imo ur coolest beseige build. the homing missiles with the vacuum blocks are actually really clever, I will have to experiment with those!

Does anyone else think he sounds like Nilered?

You can always use the "No Bounds" mod to have as much strength as you want on the cannons, rockets etc. ! :)

3:46 Ah waiter, there seems to be some Kerbal Space Program in my Beseige...

A wooden steam powered supersonic aircraft sounds like an early 1900s military strategists wet dream and/or worst nightmare

we got it going faster than the speed of sound, will you be breaking the speed of light next? 🤔🤔🤔

Love your Besiege videos !

It works and it looks like a jet, great job. :D

I remember spending hours on this game building ornithopters and helicopters about 4 to 5 years ago was a ton of fun

Thanks for making this!

Most insane thing i ever saw in this game. Its too dope

This man has not only made a functioning supersonic aircraft, but also a surface to air missile with it! That's quite impressive

You always manage to come up with the most random and impressive things one can come up with!

Looks like a f14. Good job

Hey Reid, with that spring launch, you basically made the best equivalent of an aircraft carriers catapult

He's learning how actual jets work slowly but surely. And in a cartoony medieval game no less.

This is everytime better and better

teachers: no paper airplanes in class the kids in the back:

Wow you made a pretty realistic F-15 all things considered

Really impressive, I'm only disappointed that the game doesn't have some kind of PvP mode so we can see those heatseekers in action

After trials and testing, Reid captain suddenly duscovers why jets have a payload under the wings

twin-engine, stupid fast, may or may not explode when attempting a sharp turn, sounds like a MiG-25 lmao

your video proved that in whatever game with physics it can get wing overload crash xd

I love the dream car builder videos. Nice jet though!

Just discovered this game and it looks so awesome

Missiles are primarily mounted (with exceptions) under the wing due to excess lift causing damage to the plane if mounted elsewhere. Idk if Besiege can mimic proper air physics but it looks like it does on a base level.

Love your videos!

I'm sure it's been suggested before, but I strongly recommend the BlockEnhancementMod at minimum. It still limits you to default block size, however allows things such as turning suspension into a fine tunable hydraulic piston. I feel like you of all people could make some very interesting contraptions with this mod.

this is a wonderful build

Reid Captain - First supersonic jet in besiege Toddyn - First aircraft in besiege 🇧🇷

A couple ballasts here, a few water jets there and boom, SR-71.

this is easily the best looking one

Hey love your videos and I really love Besiege and I wanted to know if you could try to make some sort of anti-air fire and forget homing missile and I've been working on something like that myself but I've had a lot of trouble but the missile you made in this video gave me inspiration to go back and try to successfully make it so thanks dude and if you could make that into a video that'd be awesome

damn I swear you have a degree in astrophysics or something, cuz that design is absolutely beautiful!

bro i don’t even play this game but i’m addicted to this content

the orbital cannon sounds like a great new weapon to die to in top tier warthunder sim

i love ur videos keep going

my favorite part about reidcaptain videos is when he says his famous catchphrase “it’s reiding time”

Maybe try making some videos form "stormworks" its a machine building sandbox too. I think it would be really interesting to watch!

bro's videos keep getting better

I hope I'm not the only one that actually found that the way it kept exploding actually looked pretty damn cool

Wooden fighter jets going above mach 1 was a good idea!

Dude is revolutionizing warfare

that homing rocket was awesome.

Oh my gosh you actually did it

Wow a real medieval super manuvarable aircraft

i love your content

That spring release mechanism would be a cool idea for an aircraft carrier 😮

You're a genius

*"Ah, what a lovely day to farm potatoes,wait whats tha-"*

hey man great vid but could you pls leave more of the crashes in? They look so cool in Besiege.

Love the vids

amazing

The plane looks like a mix between an f 18 and an f 16. Overall it is nice

The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where is is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is, whichever is greater, it obtains a deviation.

Suggestion, make a rocket ship. I know it's probably not gonna be hard I just think the steam canons would make good rocket thrusters.

Make more of these they're awesome

I love these planes in besiege! Also to answer your question, orbital cannon.
