The whole plane is out of porpotion, and I you haven't even seen it flying. I can't find any pics of it on the net, but by God, it's ugly.
 
More often than not, the expiremental planes from any country turned out hideous. This is the P-75 Eagle. The US wasted time and money producing a brand new factory produce it (rather than openinning a second line for P-38s) and it was absolutely horrible.

The prototype was literally composed of parts from other planes. The tailfin was from an SBD, the outer wings from a P-40, and the main landing gear from a F4U.
 
Length: 40' 5"
Height: 15' 6"
Span: 49' 4"
Max weight: 18,210 pounds.

That's approaching the size of most twin-engined fighters.
