That was one FUGLY bird. Looks like a P-40, P-51 and a Thunderbolt had a menage a trois.

It’s like that Johnny Cash song where he smuggled the parts out of the car plant to build a Cadillac.

Worst plane of WW2? So many choices, but I tend to go with the German Bachem Ba 349 Natter. Vertical take off like a rocket, fire one salvo of rockets at a bomber formation, glide for a while as your five minutes of fuel ran out, then bail out.
Then there was the Me 163 Komet, which had the unfortunate effect of dissolving one pilot mid-flight when the oxidizer system leaked.
