McDonnell XP-67 Moonbat Onsie

The McDonnell XP-67 Moonbat is a fascinating chapter in the annals of aviation history, embodying the spirit of innovation and the relentless pursuit of aerodynamic excellence. Conceived in the early 1940s, this prototype fighter was designed to push the boundaries of speed and efficiency, featuring a unique, aerodynamically streamlined fuselage that earned it the nickname 'Moonbat'. Although only one prototype was ever built, and its development was plagued by technical challenges and ultimately cancelled in 1944, the XP-67 remains a testament to the ambitious vision of its creators. Its twin-engine design, intended for high-speed interception, and its distinctive bat-like appearance make it a standout project of the era. The Moonbat's legacy lives on as a symbol of the daring dreams that drive aviation progress, even when they don't always take flight.
