In march 1946, after 5 months of bloody fight, the allies were progressing in Japan.
A batch of american soldiers seized the small island of Tojomakawanobetsu. Here they were surprised to see abandoned prototypes. They discovered highly-secret planes unknown to the Allies. These were the Ki-125 and Ki-137 jet and mixed powerplants fighters. aparently a German submarine (later identified as U-666 GrosseScheisse) loaded with Luft'46 secret papers had reached the island and allowed the Japanese ingeniers to copy Blohm and Voss, Junkers (and the like) bizarre fighters.



The Ki-125 was a straight wing jet fighter
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

MiG-15 and Zero kitbash. Interesting detail : the wings of these planes can be inverted whithout problem. The wing roots are exactly the same!

Love these...they appeal to my sense of Nipponese Whifery.

Those reverse flaps could cause some unusual moves (to put off B29 gunners)  :o  :D  :D ...unless of course it flies the other way round and the tail puts them off by looking like its going backwards. :wacko:  :wacko: .........just great either way. :)

They just looked good (reminded me the Dauntless dive-brakes!) but I admit they are pure sci-fi (just love the what-if world for that :P ) Don't forget its FSW MiG-15 wings :)

Dear Archie,
Could you confirm the layout of your swept wing one? Is it a forward-swept-wing plane with a pusher propeller? What is the nose air intake for? (as the rear radial seems to have air access from the rear). My head is turning... Where is my left and right hand?... :blink:  ;)

In fact its a mixed powerplant fighter. The nose intake you can see is for a turbojet, which exhaust is below the fuselage :) Not easy to photograph this plane. So its a pusher, with the jet behind and the piston-engine on the rear. And forward swept wings.

The exhaust is below the fuselage...because at the beginning, I also have difficulties deciding in which direction would fly the aircraft :P!!!! . So the round hole was the exhaust, and the air intake was below the fuselage :)
totally sci-fi and illogical : a pure whatif  :rolleyes:

You just thought it up and went ahead and built it, didn't you?

Gutsy, man.  Very gutsy!

Styrene in my blood and an impressive void in my cranium.
