The Hawthorne is a parasite fighter inspired by the designs that sprouted from the German Emergency Fighter Program at the eng of WWII. These were light, small, and somewhat strange fighters and anti-bomber craft that never really went into production (The jet powered He-162 had a few models built, and one or two Do-355s, the only prop fighters to come out of the program, were also constructed. But, to my knowledge, that's all they did), and almost all of them stayed as paper concepts. Many of these were parasite fighters - small, often rocket propelled planes that attatched to the bottom of bombers to be jettisoned to fend off fighters. This is powered my IStoleYourMeme's JATO thruster - you should check it out.
