*shiFt* brings this one home. Your go!

 

[*shiFt*]

Good luck on this one

Saab J-21R?
Vultee XP-54?

 

[*shiFt*]

Damn you're fast!
J-21R

Damn you're fast!
J-21R

Well, with a shape like that, it could only be a few different aircraft. Interesting choice, though!

You're up, Super-B!

 

[superberkut]

All right!

 

[Leonidae]

hmmmmm.... I have a hunch where to look at, but I think I'll let others to do the work

 

[High-Test]

McDonnell F3 Demon.

If I'm right, someone else can take it.

 

[superberkut]

You have it! Your turn.

By the way, how's the website going?

 

[High-Test]

Someone can post one. My brain's fried. The site is on life support. needz..moar..members....

In the interest of keeping this thread alive:

Don't check the address of the image.

Judging by the colours it's Japanese, proceeding to the gear door design it's a fighter, likely made by Kawasaki. Ki-61 or Ki-100, hard to say but the relative straightness of the nose forward of the gear wells might be a hint towards the radial engine. I'm not sure though...

I gonna go out on a limb and say it's a T6 Texan / SNJ.

 

[superberkut]

Unbelievable, Greycap! It is indeed a Ki-100!

Go ahead and post one.

The man is uncanny.

 

[Greycap]

The man is uncanny suffers from a very bad case of warbird geekiness.

Fixed. 👍

That landing gear door style was only used on those two Kawasakis out of the Japanese models, the large sheet of metal covering the suspension parts. Could have been the "Hien" too, the nose shape was a heavy guess. I'll come up with something later today.

 

[Leonidae]

well done, pal. 👍

 

[Greycap]

OK, here goes.

 

[superberkut]

Model kits... Original!

No combat flaps... hood-mounted gun placements... inline engine...

Curtiss P-40?

Hold on...

Kawasaki Ki-61?

 

[Legendary]

I suck at planes, but i go to a school called aviation high so ill have a guess...

This will more than likely be wrong but here goes...spitfire?

 

[superberkut]

Greycap, I don't think any more people are taking guesses... I stand by the 'Tony'.

 

[Greycap]

Oh yes, Ki-61 indeed. I forgot about the entire thread.

 

[superberkut]

Can't blame you...

(quote gives name) Is this too difficult?

 

[Jim Prower]

Early naval jet. Thought it was a sabre at first, but, nope, not that.

 

[Greycap]

Not a Sabre, not a jet either. Jets don't need two-piece propeller hubs or six propeller blades...

 

[High-Test]

Skypirate?
AJ Savage?

 

[Leonidae]

Skyraider?

 

[superberkut]

No to all. Very close, though.

 

[Greycap]

Nah, I'll take it to get this moving. Douglas A2D Skyshark, the development of the good old Skyraider with a turboprop driving contra rotating propellers. Hence my comment above...

 

[superberkut]

He never fails!

Your go.

Edit: Please do. Has he seen the thread yet?
