This are very strange looking fighters, the US Army tested some extremer designs of fighters, but in the end the ordert none. The kits came from Czech Models, short run with resin parts and the need some rework to be nice.

Yet more really nice builds CL - they look great.

Certainly an interesting choice of subjects - they are pretty cool looking with a great deal of What-if potential I would imagine. (XP-55 in D-Day markings?)

Great stuff!

I do like that XP-55. There are some civil planes from a local airport that have a strong resemblance to that one I see flying around here from time to time...

I do like these type of subjects, nice to see some that are not German for a change. Really nice builds.
