I have no idea what L.A. Noir / Mob City is like, but I certainly like this picture

Royal Air Force Hawker Hurricane fighters were stationed near Archangelsk during Operation Benedict, and American bombers flew shuttle bombing missions from Poltava, Ukraine, during Operation Frantic. If I remember correctly, Stalin also asked for US ground troops to fight the Germans inside...

By that line of reasoning, the Soviet Union was not a superpower either, since its navy was also outclassed by the US Navy and it was unable to project its power overseas.

VEF I-16 (or Irbitis I-16), a Latvian fighter. One prototype was built.

PZL 62 Polish fighter project

PZL.50 Jastrząb (Hawk), a Polish fighter. One prototype flew in 1939, and six more were in various stages of completion.

A picture of the projected Arado Ar 234 P night fighter. I am sorry I cannot identify the sub-variant. The wikipedia article mentions the following: Ar 234 P-1 Two-seater with four BMW 003A-1 engines; one 20 mm MG 151/20 and one 30 mm (1.18 in) MK 108. Ar 234 P-2 Also a two-seater, with...

A very fascinating and intriguing beginning! Keep up the good work! :):):)

Krases, have there been historical projects like this in the USA (I have heard of the German Breitspurbahn project already), or is this something you have invented yourself? It certainly looks fascinating :cool::cool::cool:!

From the original post: If Stalin is free to do as he pleases (as I think he was OTL) he could have done an un-Stalinist thing and liberalised the economy to some degree, greatly improving its efficiency. Due to a more efficient agricultural sector, more Soviet citizens are alive, more are in...

Horten Ho 229 (also known as Gotha Go 229). In this case, what looks good, does not neccessarily work well. But it is not an example of 'napkinwaffe', as it was built and flew.
