Not the Spitfire, it’s beautiful and won the Battle of Britain. Not the P-51 it’s more beautiful than the spitfire and actually won the war. Not the BF-109 it fought the entire war and held the line, it was the ace maker. Not the yak-3 the soviets stole everything they invented.

Let’s talk aviation beauty my first runner up is the P-40 Warhawk.

The soviets stole it’s design. The Japanese kicked it’s ass. It was expensive, over designed, and an udder failure in battle. The US Marines had to invade an un-invadible island to secure the defense of this horrible airplane. 20,000 marines paid the price, every Japanese soldier died on this island. For what?

Exactly, every marine that hit the beach felt the same way. And I agree however, what motivated the jap soldier? Love for their family? Love for their country? Love for their emporer? No.

I posit that they fought for honor. They were attacked by 20,000 US Marines. No way were they going to give up.

Respect to the jap soldier
