I like compact aircraft but also think that there might be some practicalities to solve, to make them actually work...
perttime:
Back to WW2, then. My FIRST whif picture only requires fairly minor changes to history.
In 1940-1941, a few Soviet designers were working on heavy fighters. One of them was Peter Grushin with his Gr-1. It isn't quite clear to me if it ever flew. The development site in Kharkov, Ukraine, was evacuated out of the way of a German offensive and the aircraft was packed into a train. The train was destroyed in an air raid, and both aircraft and documentation were lost.
What if... the train made it to safety and the Gr-1 turned out to be good?
Certainly, some would be captured and end up in Finnish colors...
(I don't remember which drawing I used for the outline. The colors are borrowed from a Petlyakov PE-2 or PE-3 drawing.)
