Yes, #3 is my favorite as well. You are right, it doesn't have the lines of a Spitfire, but she was a technological prowess too. Fast, airborne radar, bullet shield to protect the pilot during the attack phase, pressurized cockpit, ejection seats... The Cadillac of night fighting... It was complicated to build though, and political bickering led to few numbers being built and put in service. Had they been built in numbers, who knows, maybe it could have put a serious dent in allied night bombing operations...

Posted: Tue Sep 13, 2011 11:25 amFrom what ive read the night fighter 'system' the Luftwaffe had in place was a little flawed in that the attacking fighter had to return to its radar 'station' after an intercept so the controller could re-identify it - no IFF i presume. However, they still accounted for some horrendous losses on the 1,000+ bomber streams of the RAF, did this aircraft have a way round this , or was a new system in development?
Nice shots however
