United States' Northrop P-61 Black Widow fighter

I've made some additional specification and historical updates.

Germany's Heinkel He 219 Uhu night fighter updated

I've now added some additional specifications and historical information.

Germany's Focke-Wulf Ta 154 Moskito ("mosquito") night fighter added

Inspired by the British Mosquito, the Germans developed the Focke-Wulf Ta 154 Moskito. It was to be a night fighter constructed primarily of wood. However, there were faults with the glue used so no more than around 75 Ta 154s were constructed.

Germany's Dornier Do 217 heavy bomber and night fighter updated

It still amazes me that the United Kingdom's de Havilland Mosquito was made primarily out of wood in World War II and flew so exceptionally well in so many roles! I've made some additions and added the specifications for the PR.Mk 34 reconnaissance version.

United States' Northrop P-61 Black Widow fighter

The best night fighter, designed and produced during World War II was the Northrop P-61 Black Widow. It was a deadly creature of the night, much feared by the enemy. I've always thought the all black color gave it that even deadlier mystic of its nickname, the Black Widow. Fortunately for the Axis powers they didn't arrive until 1944.
