Tsubame Karasugane | SteamPowered Fighter

In an alternate history where gasoline engines were never invented, a world war erupted in 1924, fought with steam-powered machines. As the conflict progressed, technology advanced, leading to the development of lightweight metals capable of withstanding extreme pressure.

Engineered by Tsubame, the Karasugane was first introduced on the battlefield in 1927. Designed by Japan for rapid interception of enemy aircraft at high altitudes, it excelled in both top speed and climb rate. However, this performance came at the cost of some maneuverability.


- 2 Light autocannon
- 2x200 ammo


Crew: 1
Length: 13.50m
Wingspan: 16.25m
Height (gears up): 2.5m
Mass: 3930 kg
Powerplant: 6 medium cylinders boxer Engine
Steam Tank: 3x700L at 60Bars


1- Start the steam generator that spawns with the plane
2- Connect the generator to the plane using the fluid hose and fluid anchors
3- Wait until the plane tanks are filled (about 59-60 bars), in case you do not want to wait a full tank, you need at least about 5 bars in the tank to fligh.
4- Once the tank have enough pressure, you can disconnect the plane and climb inside.
5- Once inside, increase the Engine Buffer Pressure Target, this values needs to be above 5 bars to fligh. Lower values can be use to taxi (like 2 bars). Increased pressure means increased performance
6- Turn the engine on and wait for the radial indicator to be green
7- Once the radial indicator is green it means the Engine pressure is at least 80% of the targeted pressure, which is enough to start flying.
8- The up/down arrows controls the collective, which is basically your throttle. Below a collective of 0.1 the wheel brakes are engaging. The brake are at their maximum when the collective is at 0
9- Allowing Engine Buffer depressurisation will reduce engine efficiency at is will dump any excess pressure in the buffer. However this allows additional control on the pressure, especially if you want to reduce it, as otherwise you need to wait for it to be used by the engine.


The creation has some comfort features that are not theme realistic, such as autopilot, but are here to make the experience in stormworks more pleasant
