It seems to me that this request does not meet the charter of the forum!

Hi, can you be more specific? There are no other variants of this plane other than relation to the mosquito to add in a variants code. Do you mean more blueprints. if you can tell me I can fix this.

All I see here is a real life "franken" ... Personally I think it looks like someone left an un-chaperoned Mossie in a hanger overnight with an over-sexed  Beaufighter ...

Just throw the engines from the Beau on to a Mossie....... and send for the Midwife... job done.   ;)

(or possibly use the engines off an A-20 even...  :P)

 This plane m8. U need to go to argentina and look through IAe's archives to get any accurate info on this plane. All i know is that it uses the hamilton standard props. It had really lousy speed. And a lot of sites on the internet states it had 4x 20mm guns even though it had 4x 12.7mm mgs during most of its service life.

LOL! That's what I was thinking! It looks like a baby Beau-Mossie. Of course it's never a bad thing to look like a Mossie.  :D
