One of my Warplanes.
1934, and the Japanese Navy required a fighter for its carrier forces. Mitsubishi selected Jiro Horikoshi to lead the design team (who would go on to design the famous Zero). The resulting aircraft far exceeded the requirements of the Navy, who put it to good use in the Second Sino-Japanese war.

@Weaverfish ok, thanks for your efforts anyway. I'll try it myself and make it a successor.
@shipster Unless there's a way to edit your submitted airplanes, I don't see how I can.
I agree with you in that having a camera in the cockpit is better, and all of my recent designs will have that feature
Would it be possible for you to make the cockpit view a camera instead of a cockpit piece? Sorry If I am to picky, I just like my planes to be realistic.
I like how you put your own descriptions in instead of just copy and pasting information from Wikipedia :)
I like what you got, you have a follow from me.
@Weaverfish ok
@BroAeronautics yeah, there's also prewar german fighters like the Focke-Wulf Fw 159, or the arado ar80. I'll look into the 68.
I want all of my aircraft in this catagory to have something unique about them. Eg, chaika has exceptional manoeuvrability and bad speed, a5m has telescopic sight system and easy carrier takeoff/landing, hurricane is a light ground bomber/fighter, p40 is a strictly energy fighter
I want the german and italian choices to have their own unique characteristics too. Any ideas?
@Weaverfish did you see my last comment?
@Weaverfish I have a suggestion for a pre-WWII German fighter. The Arado Ar 68
@CursedFlames Also pls upvote :3
@CursedFlames I made this on android, not sure how PC controls work but phones get a touch-joystick so you can fly very sensitive for accurate shooting, or pull up hard all the way for turnfighting.
Flat spins from over pitching was a pretty common feature in 1930's era aircraft, I wanted to replicate that effect in my prewar series.
The last preww2 fighter I want to do is a German one, any suggestions? (not the 109)
I really like the look of this plane, especially the cockpit with the scope! I do think it handles a bit rough and could have more features, but overall, I enjoy how this plane captures all the key points of the A5M!
