Heinkel He 219 Uhu :
The Heinkel He 219 Uhu ("Eagle-Owl") was a night fighter that served with the German Luftwaffe in the later stages of World War II. A relatively sophisticated design, the He 219 possessed a variety of innovations, including Lichtenstein SN-2 advanced VHF-band intercept radar, also used on the Ju 88G and Bf 110G night fighters. It was also the first operational military aircraft to be equipped with ejection seats and the first operational German World War II-era aircraft with tricycle landing gear. Had the Uhu been available in quantity, it might have had a significant effect on the strategic night bombing offensive of the Royal Air Force; however, only 294 of all models were built by the end of the war and these saw only limited service. Ernst-Wilhelm Modrow was the leading night fighter ace on the He 219. Modrow was credited with 33 from 34 night air victories on the type.

    I was all for this but then I looked closer, those control surfaces and leading edges... I don't know if anyone has suggested it to you but you can use air intakes to form sharp trailing edges while using inlet angle to give it a nice angle, saves having ugly looking parts that don't match the rest of the build. Just some friendly advice, if u want me to show you or discuss anything just let me know :)

    Beautiful representation of a unique plane. You’re getting better with each build. This one still accelerates fairly swiftly, but overall, it handles fairly well and is very enjoyable to fly.

    Only four 20mm cannons? Is this an early version? Because this thing also carried two 30mm cannons in the wing roots and fuselage tray.
