This interesting fighter had the same mid-engine layout as the American P-39 Airacobra. It also had contra-rotating propellers. It first flew in June 1938, but its 860 hp. V-12 did not provide adequate performance and the project was dropped. It was painted this gaudy color for an air show. Built from scratch. |

Koolhoven |
F.K.58 |
In their search for aircraft, the French went to Holland and bought 18 of these. The reason that it looks like a Fokker D.XXI is that its designer worked on the D.XXI and brought some ideas with him when he switched jobs. I made this one from a D.XXI kit. |
