Fokker D.XXIII

3,248 Martijnproper  8.6 years ago

This push-pull fighter was designed by Anthony Fokker (of WW1 fame) and first flew in 1939. When the Germans came over it was damaged in a bombing raid and never flew again. It could have been a great fighter, though.

    @Lego2250 : indeed it is! In fact, both this and the Fokker G1 were an inspiration for the P-38.
