One of my Warplanes - Nimble cannon Dogfighter.
Aerial warfare in the 1930's held the belief that newer, faster aircraft were having less time to deliver killing blows during attack runs. Westland countered this by clustering four new Hispano 'Cannons' into the nose of a light, nimble, dual-engined fighter. The Whirlwind championed excellent agility and handling despite its heavy armament... But proved too expensive to manufacture to compete with the Spitfire. It was sidelined to Scottish airfields, and operated in the northern campaign.
Stats for nerds - 2x850hp Peregrine, 9,000lbs, 100gal located in outer wings, 360mph. Armed with 4x20mm Hispano MkI w/60rounds, British orange tracers.
Hispano MkI; 2.09m spread@100m, 650 Mv@M/s, 130g rounds, 10rps.

Yes since Germany did plan to do that with 190s in the war @Weaverfish
@Zerokiller3 I was planning on just the standard fw190, possibly with x4s, sound good?
Could you possibly make a Ta-152 C-3 with the X-4s?
@ReischetzFokke yeah, and Bombardier positions too.
It'll take a while ;) if you have any requests I'll have time for one soon.
@ReischetzFokke Yes :) :) I plan to go back and refresh my old planes. It takes time though. I can't wait to do the 109 cockpit.
@ReischetzFokke my old planes use the half cockpits, recent planes use new detailed cockpits. Which are you talking about?
I wanna catch up on my own projects honestly. Someone else did a fantastic Arado 234 you should check out though.
I spent 3 hours for my A-10
By the way,how much time do you spent to make this Whirlwind?
Ar-234 maybe?
Maybe sooner?
I'll ask you another plane later.After my test.
Finally! Thanks!
