491 The Frightened Falconer

Koss Laina wearily rose from his position, rubbing his aching brow and accepted a cup of hot tea from his assistant.

He took a sip, but his gaze didn't move from the slanted drawing board in front of him, because there was an airplane on it that seemed perfect to him.

This airplane was a single-seat monoplane fighter, from design concept to engine performance, it was already at the pinnacle.

The retractable landing gear perfected the aerodynamic layout of the whole airplane, and at the same time, it significantly enhanced the fighter's flight performance.

If a military enthusiast who had traveled through time were standing next to these blueprints, they would immediately recognize the airplane as the famed FW-190 fighter.

Among the various fighters in the early stages of World War II, the best performing were those of Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom.

The early American and Soviet fighters were absolute rubbish, without any redeeming qualities.
