Corsair F4U
Designed as a powerful carrier fighter, the early F4us were restricted to land bases because they were difficult to fly aboard ship. But by the end of 1944 Navy and Marine squadrons were safely operating aboard carriers, and Corsairs remained active until after the Korean War. The Corsair was often used in ground-attack excelling in performance and payload.
It remained in production longer than any other U.S. fighter of the period and was credited with an 11:1 ratio of kills/losses against the Japanese. Development and production continued after the war for a total of 12,571 planes.

Messerschmitt Me-262
Sleek and Deadly..The Messerschmitt Me 262.
During WWII's final two years this gas turbine-powered M2-262 was the great white hope of the Luftwaffe's Fighter Force.Far faster than any allied fighter type, with its powerful armament, it promised to be a potent bomber destroyer. Yet in combat, the revolutionary jet made little impact in any role..WHAT went wrong??

Grumman-Wildcat
Grumman's first monoplane and one of the outstanding Naval fighters of World War II, the F4F design began in 1935 while the company's latest biplane for the USN. Production of the F4F-3 totaled 285, all by Grumman.
A contemporary of the Japanese Zero, the F4F in fact had an inferior performance in several respects, yet proved capable of holding its own thanks to its superior armament, rugged construction and well-trained pilots.

Brewster Buccaneer
The Buccaneer was apparently a good design but in the hands of bumbling management and inexperienced in aircraft workers in bad production facilities is the sorry story of Brewster and it's dive bombers.

Flettner-282
In Germany, Anton Flettner developed a series of helicopters using counter-rotating intermeshing rotors. In 1942, the two seat Fl 282 Kolibri ("Humming Bird") became the first helicopter anywhere to enter operational military service. It was the most advanced helicopter developed during WWII. Thanks to Aaron for distilling this pretty complex piece of machinery into a relatively easy cardmodel.

Arado Minifighter
A captured Arado document showed a miniature fighter, 18.4ft in span and 16.2 ft long, slung under the fuselage of an Ar 234C. The pilot is prone behind armor plate and plexiglass, and armament consists of 1 x MK 108 with 45 rounds. A Walter bi-fuel rocket is fitted in the tail. It was to make two high speed passes at the Allied bombers and then, if it still existed, look for someplace to land.

Grumman Goose (Coming Soon)
Grumman G-21 Goose amphibious flying boat was designed as a ten-seat "commuter" plane for businessmen in the Long Island area. The Goose was Grumman’s first monoplane to fly, its first twin-engined aircraft and its first aircraft to enter commercial airline service. During World War II, the Goose became an effective transport for the US military and Coast Guard, as well as serving with many other air forces. During hostilities, the Goose took on an increasing number of combat and training roles. In postwar use, the adaptable little transport continued in use as just a fun plane to have.
