Here you go:


FM-2
93 people worked on this design but it had a fatal flaw. They didnt figure out that it lacked a propeller until 1945




Something like that.

All you non-Russian speakers should step aside and be quiet!  Here is the REAL translation:

"93 of these cheaply built aricraft is all it would've taken to beat the Americanskis if we'd continued our conquest of western Europe in 1945."

Thank you! I was considering making a skin of this, I'll leave the gremlin guts out though. I was hoping the text would explain the odd markings (not the vomit), and mine WILL have a prop.

Thanks again .
