Multirole single propeller WW2-era fighter!
This design is heavily inspired by German fighter design, featuring rounded wing-tips (Fw-190), and the rest of the design (particularly the cockpit shape) being based on the Bf109.
Design Features:
Rechargeable WEP with a full charge of around 30s! The WEP will regenerate automatically once throttle decreases below 90%.
Detailed Cockpit (AG1 to open)
Weapons (4 Wing Machine Guns, 1 Torpedo, 14 Rockets) with in-built weapon convergence! (AG2 to jettison)
Ejection Seat (AG3)
Flaps (Trim)
Flight Characteristics:
Max Speed: ~650km/h IAS with WEP at 2000km
Takeoff/Landing Speed: ~190km/h IAS, full flaps
Turn Capability: ~8Gs maintained at ~500km/h IAS (pretty turny with good energy retention)
Enjoy the Build!

So I wasn't satisfied with how the guns are not quite converging within engaging distances, so I readjusted it in the new build here:
