How I designed a Super Fighter (Augustine Origami Fighter Jet Tutorial)

Augustine is a variation of Augustus, common monarchy name back in the Roman Empire days. So you should get a hint how it gets the name.

This is Augustine, it is my take on how a super fighter should be designed and look like in origami form. It got a three surface wing layout, some stealth features in fuselage shaping, engines, color changing cockpit, landing gears and 6 missile racks underwing for beast mode.

It is the first jet I ever designed that uses a square sheet of paper that combined all these features and details in just one plane, and it's quite tricky work. Started from a design challenge I set for myself and made it months ago and now I'm here to share it with you.

And, it indeed had a story with Venture Alpha. Months ago I figured out how to reverse engineer the Venture Alpha before Alex released the tutorial. and I decided to set up a challenge to make a plane with conventional layout, color changing cockpit, missile racks, engines, all in one as a rival. My path is to figure out the ultimate design potential of the base used by Jayson Merrill's advanced F-22, after several failed tryouts this one just came out.

The missile rack layout can also be adjusted depends on how you manage the layers in the leading edge. You got a huge ton to explore.

Paper wise I suggest using foil paper, in this video I used 30cm square foil paper for demonstartion. 11-12 inches is the minimum to make the plane, but for a fully functional model that can properly load missiles to the missile racks, you'd better use 15 inches or larger.

Enjoy!
