It's amazing how much the Stuka shark-mouths look like the P-40 shark-mouths of the AVG who apparently borrowed them from the Desert Air Force of the British. I wonder who was really first.
Also amazing is how small the Bf-109 and Fw-190 were. Much smaller than most of their US counterparts. It is unbelievable they were able to fit a 2000+ Hp engine in that tiny airframe! Fuel injection was revolutionary at the time.
