The Fulcrum is without doubt, one of the meanest war machines of the 20th and 21st centuries!

 

[Mikoyan]

Yeah!
And without doubt one of the prettiest too!
The Flanker is a better fighter, sure, but if any plane should count as a babe, the Fulcrum would be it.

This is what happens to the fulcrum when it meets the F-15I:

This is so sad.

Depends on the man at the controls, boy.

US F16 pilots have been on record stating that they would not want to mix it with a veteran-piloted Mig29.

PS
Grow up!

One of the most lethal attack craft of WW2.
Killed 8 bombers on it's prototype flight!

The He219 Eagle Owl.

Well maybe a little overblown

Who can name this one?

Esteemed Mooselord, It is a Hudson.

A mundane but capable medium bomber...

How about this

I hereby declare all images posted by Curt so far absolutely gorgeous! Especially the weird-looking 'Uhu'!


Here's a naval Fulcrum, MiG-29K

The first aerial kill was scored by a frenchman with a rifle from
his Morane mono-plane in WW1.
Max Immelmann was popularised as being the first real ace to use MGs from his Fokker Eindecker.

The hudson was a 1930's plane...you mad moose!
The other stats are true, though, so you get some points.

PS
The fighters are Curtiss-Wright CW-22 Demons.

Thanks Miko!

Iceblaze is just jealous of such fine Eurasian warplanes.
The F15 is a slug when it comes to dogfighting.

This link leads to an amazing page that documents the advanced Messerschmitt fighter project...makes the Me262 look cumbersome!

Makes you realise how WW2 in the air could have been so different.
Looking at these pics it is apparent how our current aircraft design evolved from these German machines.

These jets look as if they are from a different time, as if they don't really belong in WW2.

The Me-1101 reminds me of the F-86 Sabre. No doubt the F-86 is based on the Me-1101. Fascinating. Thanks, Curt!
