Japan Komet

It flies straight as board if you let the controls be. Love it.
this looks very similar to the Me 163, but i can see how it is different
reminds me of the Kikka and the Me 262
@DickBrazen did it sound like i was calling out otayahiromo8211 because i wasn't.
@vcharng No
Nice build, by the way, does J8M have the wind turbine (small propeller that acts as a generator) on the nose, like the Me 163?
something i never understood is why the Japanese thought it was a good idea to ally themselves with Nazis when there leader was a tyrannical insane out of touch old man that more or less wanted to take over the world. that exactly what Lebensraum was about.
A komet BOI!

Heheee... I know... I tested in another Shusui build a few years ago. And The Only Way for it to work, was to Put Small Wheels in the Skid... :D
@typeZERO
This aircraft was made just for flight test, so it has no guns.
Also, I put wheels on skid because it crashes when landing without them.
Aww, no guns... T_T
.
Still, Hehee, I saw what you did with the Landing "WHEELS"... :P
Or Should I say, The " Landing skid"... :P
.
BEAUTIFUL work! Upvoting! :D
I love it . Great job .
Lovely
Immediately I think of the nickname “Buzz Bee.” I don’t know why XD
Good job on this! Looks fab
Aside of another great build, thanks for sharing it and i love it!
Fun fact:
The name Shūsui was used as a poetic term meaning "Sharp Sword" deriving from the swishing sound of a sword.
