Description
The Airacomet was the first American-designed and built turbojet fighter. It first flew in prototype form on 1 October 1942.
The United States Army Air Forces was not impressed by its performance and cancelled the contract when fewer than half of the aircraft ordered had been produced. Although no P-59s went into combat, it paved the way for another design generation of U.S. turbojet-powered aircraft and was the first turbojet fighter to have its turbojet engine and inlet nacelles integrated within the main fuselage.

I am seeing at lest three or four guns on that plane, you sir, truly need to be more careful before commenting.
Is that a P-51 mustang next to it? Or some other plane?
