Can this plane fly move like that?, page 1

This plane is similar to the P-51 which I'm thinking it was based on. Time is at 7:59. Sure its long but its worth watching them all.

The plane I was referring to is a single engine. The one thats spinning around like a tornado while shooting.

I hear what you're saying...

He is in an almost flat spin like maneuver with his nose locked on target. Not sure if it's realistic given the period of the movie. Maybe he could do it with a little luck IMO.
Great vid by the way.

I'm an old anime FANatic.

Is it possible if the plane goes down but keeps its wings levelled horizontally and tilt a little bit at an angle to keep turning around in circles at least not that fast?

A video flashback of the WWII pilot of a P-51.

Time at :20 its similar move.

Now in the anime video when the pilot looks in surprise at the "P-51" look alike and you see the relection in the cockpit, the plane is at an angle, not exactly straight horizontal.

With alot of luck and praying you dont rip yur wings off the fuselage maybe. But it wouldnt be abled to be repeated again thats for sure.

That is a slick move, but more like throwing yourself into a flat spin. He is turning the plane but still maintaining some forward velocity. In the video he mentions the same thing I said about going into a stall, even with how quick he turned, which is from losing forward thrust and lift in that split second. the one in your initial video would have to be done with some type of canard, and/or maybe vector thrust engines. I still don't think you would be able to do a complete circle around another aircraft like that. Think about the direction the engines are facing, for example. When the attacking aircraft is behind the defensive aircraft, he has to somehow accelerate while flying sideways with his engines thrust pointing 90 degrees in the wrong direction.

Yep, it looks a bit like a '51, but with a few other changes. A possible DB610 with annular radiator, and the empennage lifted from an IL2.

The other birds what were reognizeable were the canards at the beginning and throughout the clip. A Kawanishi Shinden, or a very modified P55, but, seeing as this is an anime, and therefore Japanese in origin, my money would be on the Shinden. And, I believe that the Japanese had plans to deploy Shindens aboard carriers(if they could ever build more). The bomber, on the other hand, looks like a very modified B35.

On the B35, a number of years ago, I found a web site that dealt with an altermate history of the B35/B49. Instead of the B52 being designed and built, the Flying Wing would have become part of the inventory of the Air Force and the NHavy, the B49 going to the Air Force, and the B35 going to the Navy. Among what was discussed were the paint schemes. One paint scheme that turned ouit to be not very popular was the desert pink scheme. The aircrew that flew it was too embarrassed to be seen near it during the day. The site made me think.

How did you find that? That about proves it's possible. Maybe not the same duration.
