We have a winner. :angel:
New one.
monoplane fighter, inward retracting l/g, v-12 engine (not of the country of origin), tapererd wing, enclosed bubble like canopy, 1 20mm cannon (engine mounted) and 4 7.7mm mgs, rear mounted radiator, was to replace the Firefly, later had its engine replaced by a radial and given a new designation
hint: 3 colors in the country's flag

I know,
if I gave you the country, it would be very easy to guess the a/c.The colors ran vertical.

Well, if it ws intended to replace the Firefly it must be Allied, but it cant be British, Soviet or American, So that must mean it was by some random country that done bugger all Correct?
Correct?

and the engine is proberly a merlin or griffon, so that's why the engines are of a different nationality, we're getting there...........

You see I thought I was onto something with the Spearfish, it matched the description and made logical sense, but obviously not...

perhaps he's confused and the stripes run horizaontal and it's the americans??
cheddar cheese
Major General
No because the American stripes only have 2 colours, red and white, he said there was 3. Im thinking it was French, Belgian or evan an IRISH plane

It is the Firefly with 2 wings, not the one with 1 wing.
No confusion lanc. Think about the hint, "if I gave you the country, it would be very easy to guess the a/c". What does that suggest?
LOL lanc, do you know what direction vertical is? American flag's 2 strips run horizontal.
