It's a normal day in your B-17, flying over a green but crater ridden Germany, when you see this coming up behind you. Wat do.

B-17s are day bombers, this thing is a night fighter.

Also, if this thing is in the air, I'm gonna assume that there would also be a few P-80s around to protect my rear.

Well, in the night they can tear Lancasters to shreds though.

Then just mount a some radars on the P-80s and make them into night escorts.
