Hence it never cut the mustard as a fighter :D

Yup, european.
 
ding dong, the Koolhoven F.K.55
 
Ding dong indeed.

Your turn 👍
 
ok, this one doesnt appear on FS2004:D
 
Looks so familiar. Where the hell have I seen it :banghead:
 
Front cowling looks like a Spitfire, but funny vents on underside are throwing me off.

If it is a Spit, is it the Spit Mk21? That had conta-rotating blades.
 
Are you sure those are RAF markings? Not many other airforces flew Spitfires.
 
I think they are RAF markings, but that tail and that funny vent on the underside dont look like a Spit.
 
sorry, but its not a spit of any sort
 
no
 
Supermarine Seafire? The only other conta-rotating blade fighter I can think of.
 
no, sorry
 
*Throws hands in air*

I throw the towel in on this one. Its all yours Viper Zero.
 
Some sort of modified Hawker Fury? It's 5 AM and I have class at 12...
 
wait, i will give some clues,

it uses a Rolls Royce Griffon 83 V12 liquid cooled engine 2340 hp
if that doesnt help i will give another

no, sorry
 
The only two planes that I know that use a Griffon Engine are the previously mentioned Spit and P-51 Mustang, which became the RB-51.
 
well its not them, are you ready for the next clue?
 
Hawker Hurricane?
 
Today, the company is known primarily for its line of ejector seats

also the aircraft is considered by many as being the best all round fighter evolved during World War II. at first sight, it looks a lot like a modified P-51D mustang
 
Oh, I know! I won't say, I gotta go to bed and I won't be able to post a reply pic. The plane never went into production and someone is building a replica of it. :)

no

yep, it sounds like viper zero's got it (but not officially yet)
 
got it:tup:
 
I have to push off now, so once you have gotten a feeling you are correct, you will have to get a confirmation from someone else, or post a pic of the one you have found.

👍
 
damn it, there is so many aircraft that look like that
 
Bingo

Beechcraft XA-38 "Grizzly"

another pic for comparison
