Takamatsu Furyuu

This is truly a fictional backstory, I would be apologize if there are similarities in names of people and places

In 1940, the Kamiguni Army Air Corps issued a specification for a fighter Aircraft, it needs to be fast, heavily armed, and agiloty capable of outturning contemporary fighters, numerous designs were submitted by many other companies including (this) radical flying wing design come from Ryuji Yashiro, designer for this Takamatsu Hikoki K.K. aircraft which submitted the Type-6 Light Flying Wing Fighter/Honmei Toriya, sadly Takamatsu lost the bid although close to the winning bid, not disheartened however for believe in honor for Takamatsu, began furthering their research and concept of flying wing fighters, and in 1943, another specifications were given, this time around it's for an Interceptor, but this time two winner contenders were taken, Takamatsu didn't let this chance get away and they entered with the exactly same airframe better armed Type-8 Interceptor/Furyuu, competitions were fierce and although being a runner-up to the bid, Furyuu's engine inspired from Daimler-Benz DB600 series that Yashiro-san reverse-engineered it to "make radial engine not longer than only an option" for the aircraft at the time, but the surprisingly Furyuu finally won the competition but Takamatsu decided to made a limited amount of production run because it slightly difficult to improved. Yes, strange in-flight rolling performance but the rest flight behavior are nearly superb and confusingly, easy to maintenance...
