Backstory:

in 1944 the war was going bad for the Kingdom of Romania, their refineries were getting bombed by allied high altitude bombers and their IAR-80s and their licensed Bf-109 E-7s couldn't do much so, the RRAF was in need of a fast high altitude interceptor with great firepower
all their configurations of the IAR-80 proved ineffective untill one of the designers decided to put the new jet engine recently developed by the Germans
this was the result;

speed increased but, a completely new body was needed

this was the final result, swept wings inspired by the Me-262
two unguided proximity fused rockets were added in order to make it more efficient
this jet was named IAR-97 CZC
in it's first mission,the new interceptor shoot down tree B-17 on their way back to a base in North Africa

after the succeses against allied bombers , a carrier based version was developed

this was supposed to be launched from German Aircraft Carriers however , they didn't get to build any
in 1946 (this plane prolonged the war in Europe with one year ) after an armistice with the Soviets in which they agreed to respect Romania's territorial integrity the country switched sides and finally , Germany was defeated
