The hs-129 probably has the only GENUINELY terrifying and intimidating nose art of any plane.

Thank you Rex for giving amateur historians such as myself access to information in a highly researched manner. You are what YouTube was meant to be.

I actually like the looks of this plane. It's sort of a smaller version of the Bristol Beaufighter, and is a great example of how the Germans could ditch their tendency for over-thinking aircraft engineering and just getting down to business when it was required. And of course the analogs to the modern day A-10 are obvious.

This thing is absolutely hilarious in War Thunder until you take a single round to the engine and then it's frantically trying to get back to the Airfield before the underpowered other engine fails as well
