A simplified maneuvreable dogfighter.
Backstory: (ALTERNATE HISTORY ALERT)
August 1945. The Wunderwaffe rises. While the warfare in Europe escalates, Edward McHeat, a young and perspective engeneer begins his career. One sunny day he fings some weird drawings labeled YM1(some people still try to prove that the drawing was a Russian one and was named UMI, but tgey failed). No other text survived. The blueprint represented a superior and uncommon aircraft using unknown engine technology and strange fuselage shape. McHeat started his work on this machine, reworking the original design into this canard work. The first 6 machines saw action in European combat. To keep it secret, the new aircraft were digused as captured Shindens

nice plane but with a problem in the story: how did a shinden get to europa? and more problematic: the shinden is smaller and has a diferent look on all parts. but at the look is nothing to critizise.
