Introduction
米国で開発され、実際に部隊配備もされたジェットエンジンとレシプロエンジンのハイブリッド複合動力を持つ、時代の橋渡し的な艦上戦闘機です。
比較的小型の護衛空母でも運用できる最新鋭艦上戦闘機として開発され、護衛空母での運用実験も開始されましたが、戦争の終結及びジェット戦闘機の加速的な発展により短期間で量産計画は中止、全機が退役していきます。
A plane with a hybrid jet-reciprocating engine developed by the US and deployed to its combat squadrons, this carrier-based fighter bridged two eras.
It is a state-of-the-art fighter developed with the capability to operate from smaller escort carriers, testing onboard escort carriers had begun but, due to the war's end and the progress in the development of jet fighters, its production was cut short, and existing airframes were retired.
Mechanics
Fighters / are one of the main types of plane used by CV(B/L). Their main role is to bring Air Power during the 1st Aerial Stage, with their "Fighter Power" stat being the most important factor in this regard. Fighters are additionally needed for Aircraft Carrier Cut-Ins (CVCI) during the day Shelling.
- They can be used in Land Bases to serve the same role as Interceptors.
Notes
Despite being propelled by one jet engine, it has nothing to do with "Jets" in the game and is seen as a regular fighter.
