Is it difficult for this bird to breathe without a proper nose? Am still new at this modeling stuff, how do you manage to find such esoteric/obscure kits?

Huh...yes, strange aircraft, there was the second version of it, with nose protruding above wing, with mock-armament, but (1942), this plane had problem - the "legs" were weak point, they collapsed 4-5 times, and the project was abandoned...The Tigercat were let say successor of "Skyrocket". And the second question - i have found it on one of modelling contests...Belgrade, a 10 years before..."modellers fly market".
Sorry if my english is not correct 100%...could be "rusty a bit".

I love this plane since I saw it the first time 🙂 Really nice to see it build here and then even more so great.
Must admit that the short nose version looks even more nicer 🙂

MPM 1/72 short run kit...
I just changed engines, because the kit had very silly pieces of plastic instead...but, it is short run...Strange looking airplane, but i like it very much...
