[About J7W1 Shinden]


Wikipedia
The J7W1 Shinden ("Magnificent Lightning") was an interceptor fighter developed by the Imperial Japanese Navy.
It was designed to intercept high-altitude invading bombers, requiring high-altitude and high-speed performance. To meet the high performance requirements of over 740 km/h, it adopted a unique fuselage shape with a pusher-type ente wing.

The prototype was built by Kyushu Aircraft Company and made its first flight in August 1945. Problems with stability and insufficient engine cooling were discovered, but the war ended before they could be resolved.

[About the work]
It was originally designed as an interceptor fighter for bombers, but its maneuverability was improved.
·I do not have a simple planes VR, so I have not verified this. Sorry.

Cowl flaps move automatically. Unlike normally arranged air-cooled engines, it opens when intake air is not needed and blocks the inflow of air.

    Thanks for your comment.
    Are you referring to the F2G? The original F4U has a distinctive inverted gull wing and I would like to make one someday :)
