    Synopsis:
    In late 1943, the Japanese captured an F4U Corsair (mostly) intact. For reasons unknown they sent it to Germany.
    The Corsair, dubbed the "Kampfflugzeugdernächstengeneration", was modified heavily with features such as rocket pods.
    Most notable were the airbrakes plastered all over the plane, designed as pseudo-parachutes to make Corsairs in a nosedive float gently down at just 60km/h.
    Pilots developed a technique called the "Stallmanöver", known as the first example of PSM. Pilots would activate the airbrakes, hover at ~100km/h, wait for aircraft behind them to overtake and then attack from behind.
    17 Corsairs were built, and 35 B-17s in total were shot down by them. According to unconfirmed sources, a certain "Lieutenant Spicyninja" "stole all the airbrakes", stopping German Corsair production.
