Since the design work was submitted in the closing days of WWII, only a few incomplete documents have survived

Clearly an essential addition to IL-2 then. :roll:

There must be hundreds if not thousands of aircraft designs that got to this stage during WW II. Why is it that only German and Japanese ones get requested?

That's an experymental or not?
If it's an experimental i think other plane who really flew must be created before experimental project

But it's a nice plane

Becuase they had the most interesting out of this world designs, and I don't know of any except Shinden and stuff that Japan had on the drawing boards, Japan was just making copys of German stuff.

Well you always here things about the Nazi's sending Jet engines, Me-163, design plans and blue prints to Japan on U-boats which always get sunk. I actually don't know any other Japanese '46 planes or anything, nut ah excuse what I said, I didn't think it through much.

Infact, The Germans where sending some of there Tech to the Japanese. They sent a Fw-190 to them. And then the Ki-100 emerged from what I've read. Goes for the same for the Me-262 and Me-163 that they made variations of I suppose.

I see your point---but also the Germans really privileged innovation, perhaps more than other countries--and perhaps to their detriment.
