Buran aerodynamic analogue OK-GLI taking off. The USSR did not have access to a plane large enough to carry and drop their Buran prototype like NASA had done with shuttle Enterprise and the SCA - a modified Boeing 747. So the engineers gave OK-GLI afterburning jet engines.

Well, RIP Reddit

You seem surprised 😂 “things will in fact be calming up” 😂❤️

When you buy a tool/asset and the materials/blueprint node graphs are complete mess, it's so infuriating. I don't know if some developers/sellers on FAB/UE Marketplace do it intentionally to obfuscate their process or what, but damn. Clean up your mess.

Insane work
