L17-4 Heron

3,285 bennyhhy  yesterday

Fictional early to mid WW2 fighter jointly developed by the Chinese and Americans to combat Japanese fighters.
It features a light and very manoeuvrable airframe, coupled with a decently powerful American engine, with 4x .50cal wing mounted machine guns for armament.
However, the higher agility means the plane bleeds energy a lot more than American fighters, making it more of a turn-fighter.
