too funny, i like the added twist of the completely wrong designation and name:aok

however, so many posts are the same, you need to be more original and less frequent, and that brings your grade way down. 6/10 for this one i reckon:aok

pssst Helldiver , P-59A Airacomet

I am curious though why the P-59 was such a failure.  
"a multitude of problems including poor engine response and reliability (common shortcomings of all early turbojets) and performance that was far below expectations."

Those seem like issues that could have been fixed, and were when the P-80 came along.  I guess I wonder why they didnt revive the p-59 once better jet engines came along, the basic aircraft looks pretty good.

P-59 AirCobra? I thought the P-39 was named the Air-Cobra during WWII. Besides, this plane is POST WORLD WAR 2! And if it was named the Air-Cobra after WWII, I don't know. But I do know that the P-39 holds the name "Air-Cobra"!

Okay, just checking. Besides, it's post war. I say "no".

Let's get rid of the "-co-" part from "Aircobra".

 It sounds much better that way - so natural, so tender, so fake.
