On the other hand, PZL.50 might have been an ugly duckling but it showed plenty promise and would not be far behind the best of the contemporary fighters in the world.
The development of PZL.38 was abandoned, PZL.50 was actually ordered into production.
On PZL.48 and 62 we can only speculate because neither was ever flown.
I agree with you at all, I just was wonder if anybody can do it... even if it's not a good machine.
But Jastrząb... Maybe. Any polish bird is always welcome
