Default RE: Knowledge Quiz for Warbird wiz

Last clue for the evening. Thanks; Ernie P.


Question: What WWII aircraft do I describe?

Clues:

(1) Really, really, fast for a propeller driven aircraft.

(2) Only two prototypes were completed. Testing results were so impressive, with such exceptional performance, an order was placed for 100 production aircraft.

(3) The order was cancelled, because it was felt other types of aircraft were needed more.

(4) This aircraft was to be an interceptor; and it was decided priority must be given to longer range fighters.
