The Grumman Skyrocket was developed just before WW2 and was the first twin engine Navy fighter.It had awesome performance for its day, it was fast (exceeded 450mph in a dive) and could outclimb a Corsair.

great suff lemoncat.....heheeehehe that was one of my first repaints

i've been working on a new version of that plane....

she's tricky to land cuz of the props..... the navy should've ordered her instead of the wildcat

awesome shots!

I used to have that plane in CFS2, It would look good if the nose was a bit longer and the canopy wasn't so agricultural! ;)
