Airborne Motor Group (Kee) (Ultimately closed and outdated)

Some pretty nifty cars you have here. Seems like your turbos might be less than optimal, however. Full-spool at nearly 5k rpm and redlines under 6k rpm? You should work on those some more. :slight_smile:

Yeah, I know I should work :smiley:
However it’s also quite difficult to adjust turbo working properly to the era. But for next cars I’ll work on them more :wink:

Look at the size of the exhaust housing, it looks like a large truck turbo.

Yeah, on S220 it went pretty big… But you’re quite late, fixed it after screens when I noticed it.

:wink: I really like your body designs.Love the fairlady inspiration and amount of detail put into them. Maybe a little of engine tweaking for efficiency (hp/l per kmh)

Well, another car to show you!

1952 Airborne Tornado
As you probably know, Airborne Automotive started in 1946 (or you don’t know?). Anyway, to 1952 we didn’t had proper 2-door luxury car like it was in the US, which was main Airborne’s market. So The Founder (I can’t tell real name, copyright & personality stuff, sry :frowning: ) decided to produce huge Coupe in american style combined with european style. So that’s how the Tornado was born.

For it’s time it could be fastest street car that typical american could afford, because it reached 226 km/h. Sadly, according to the huge weight, it was over 10 second slower in 0-100 sprint than it’s competitors, but it made it keep up with european sports cars. The car when we are looking today isn’t easy to control and wasn’t sportish in any way, but hey, it was extremely safe for it’s era and usable thankfully to huge passenger cabin and trunk, which was possible to carry over 1000 dm3 of capacity! It was flagship of luxury of Airborne Motors (the name of the company 'till 1973) until 1955 revolution, when banished ladder chassis (on which Tornado is built also) got banned and production of all models with this chassis type were stopped due to new type of chassis: Monocoque.

The car wasn’t very chromed except few details, bumpers and most noticeable mark on this car, which were the intakes on the hood. Sadly, the car looked strange and wasn’t very popular. It also featured 308 PS smooth working V8 engine with ridiculous amount of torque, which was enough for it’s era and post-war world combined with RWD and modern (for it’s times) 4-gear manual gearbox. It was available in white, bottle green and sea blue, as presented on the screens.
The model that passed the track was lighter, because there was less fuel tanked, hehe.

You could afford this car at the price of 5,120 $ in 1952.






Tell your opinions! :slight_smile:

Uh, Ladder chassis was in pickups until just recently.

Uh, it’s his story, let him tell it! Maybe in the country where Airborne Motors resided, ladder chassis were outlawed.

Nice designs and really nice body jobs keep the good work up :wink:

The OP is clearly an “English is second language” poster so I suspect he meant that the company stopped all ladder chassis models when Monocoque became available. :smiley: If he meant anything different then good for him! It’s his story so he gets to write the narrative!!! :laughing:

On Topic: Nice cars Oskiinus, keep the models coming and don’t forget the backstory :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

But it’s my in-company revolution in car building. :stuck_out_tongue:
@Cobalt - No, the company where Airborne originated was Poland, but thanks to Russia (hey, Polish People Republic!), it stayed as polish manufacturer but headquarters and factories were in the US.

@OctaneLove - I write this backstory when I have an idea, and my company was known (in backstory thing) that it introduced Monocoques very early :smiley:

@Octane and Corbanx - Thanks! :slight_smile:

That’s a hell of an engine in the last car you’ve submitted. I suspect the tyres aren’t at all equipped to keep up with the power and the weight, hence the cornering figures of 0.4g. Might your engineering department consider using larger/wider wheels?

It was 1952 man. The company wasn’t standing on it’s own legs fully, so fails might happen. :ugeek:

New car!

2014 Airborne Haiyan
Haiyan was a typhoon which completely ruined the Philippines and killed huge, but very HUGE plenty of people and it happened in 2013 and is considered as strongest typhoon which ever hit the lands.
Now let’s talk about the car:
The project was started in 2011 and the car was planned as small sporty supercar with low weight and big reserve of power. In November 2013, chief designer of Airborne European Design Studio went to Philippines, because he was from there and he wanted to help his family in preparations for Christmas. But, thanks to Typhoon Haiyan he never came back with confirmation that he died at 7th November, so CEO himself finished the project, named the car in the tribute of the typhoon and dead chief designer and published informations about it in early 2014 with presentation at 7th November 2014, at first anniversary of death of car creator.

The car itself is very capable of cornering the track: with weight of only 890 kilos and power of almost 491 PS it launches to 100 km/h in time of 3.4 seconds and reaches 290 km/h. The engine was planned to be designed like racecar engines, so it’s turbocharged 2299cc V8 flatplane. The car utilises 5-spoke 17" rims. It’s only color for now is white, we hope it will change.





Note: 2015 year is set up because I forgot to change it lol

Tell your opinions :smiley:

Other than (IMO) needing a rear wing to balance out the visual balance of the car, the Airborne Haiyan is clearly a well thought out and implemented supercar that’s also easy on the wallet! :smiley:

Thanks! :smiley:
Nice motto you got! However the price isn’t calculated now, it’s still prepared to be in production.

Really like the front and rear design, well done!

Love this car! It’s a masterpiece.

2015 Airborne Cerberus Concept

Here we go; the polish hypercar. It got it’s name from three-headed dog from greek mythology, which was keeping the gates to hell.

This car is most powerful Airborne Automotive car ever produced. We can’t tell pretty much about engine specs and car performance, only this what you can see. It was made to show how much we can. The project was heading that the car will reach 400 km/h; the target is not completed, but the car was very near of this result; with active spoiler (which got deleted, because car would be too heavy) it reached 389 km/h. The concept you see reaches 377 km/h. Our engineers are also very proud to tell you about the acceleration - 2.9 seconds in 0-100 km/h sprint and only one second in 80-120 km/h run.

This concept is fully drivable, but is scrapped from paint in various places, because of fact that more paint will cost more. It also runs on semi-slicks, so please don’t take this car to rainy Spa like Clarkson did with McLaren P1. However, pretty decent downforce and 6-gear RWD drivetrain combined with 967 PS will thrill you, but (probably) let you won’t die behind the wheel.
We plan production model in somewhere near 2016 to even 2020, because the car was extremely expensive to make and we want the production model to be as accurate to concept as it can.
Planned price stays at $ 1.035.000.

Enjoy the photos and tell what do you think! :slight_smile:




These cars are looking great.

Especially the 2015 Alpha Sport reminds me of an Opel Astra 3 :smiley:
The specs are good too.
