Description
In this particular alternate universe (Hey! The good Professor gets around, you know!), acclaimed aircraft scientist and avocado farmer, Prof. Anton Veeblefitzer, designed, with his trusty team of recalcitrant colludes (That term seems to be popular these days?!), designed a spin-off of their Veeblefitzer-Royals Royce "Meteorite" jet propelled fighter, that existed in another alt' universe, not too distant from the current one(!?!).Any-who(!), the new aircraft was titled the Veeblefitzer P-103 "Stormjet" fighter.
Powered with two of the same Whittle jet motors, as seen in the Meteorite fighter, the craft was able to achieve speeds just topping 500 mph.
Armament was 6 x .50 cal machine guns, buried in the bulging wing root, with a single 37 mm cannon placed in the aircraft's nose.
Hard-points were fitted just under the wing, outboard of the Whittle jet motor, which could carry bombs or fuel tanks, to extend the craft's range.
Depicted here, is Capt. James D Walker standing next to his P-103C mount, "Lawless Lea". Lea Walker was James' sister, who joined up with the infamous bank-robbing duo Bonny and Clyde, in the early 1930's, and was gunned down in a blazing hail of bullets, that has become legend(!).
Capt. Walker's "Stormjet", as illustrated, features D-Day invasion stripes, and his own personal markings, such as the red "racing stripes" and a photograph of his beloved sister, mounted on the port side of the craft's nose.

Goodness! What a lot of guns this has... and Whittle Rotary Engines no less! Poor Lea... didn't she know that crime doesn't pay? Still, better to burn out, than to fade away!

I'm sure Captain Walker's sister would have loved the tribute he gave her...especially because of the Stormjet's firepower

If their 'Whittles'?
The nascelles should be, uhm,,, a tad 'Stouter'.
Not saying they're fat or nothing... just, Whittles technoology was...uhm... 'Chock full of potential'. Yeah, that's it.
Check out www.deviantart.com/cutangus for interesting 'Alternate' engine ideas.

Cutangus is a real talent!
