10 years after he created Flash Gordon, Alex Raymond decided to volunteer for the US Marines in 1944.
He trained in Virginia then was posted on an aircraft carrier as a combat artist. He left San Diego for Hawaii, then Okinawa, Borneo, & finally Leyte. He drew the entire time:

Dec. 17, 1903, #onthisday, Orville and Wilbur Wright made the first successful flight of a self-propelled aircraft near Kitty Hawk, NC. Here are two images from that day by James H. Hare. Not on view. See more of Hare's work: https://t.co/e59xEvGt9P
The Vickers-Armstrong V-1000, was a 'still-born' jet-powered cargo aircraft, designed to meet a Royal Air Force requirement for strategic transport, to support its strategic bomber fleet, particularly the V-bombers. Based on elements of the Vickers Valiant, it was not built.😞
16 December 1944. Beginning of The Battle of the Bulge (also known as the Ardennes Offensive and the Von Rundstedt Offensive). To support the offensive, the Luftwaffe had assembled some 2,460 combat aircraft, including 1,770 single-engine fighters.
15 December 1939. First flight of the Kimura HK-1. Japanese glider prototype to investigate the possibilities of tailless aircraft. It was a single-seat design with an open cockpit, swept wings, and a single tail fin.
An advanced fighter aircraft specifically to counter the opposing force's main fighters. It boasts moderate choice of firepower. maneuverability and electronic suites while keeping the production cost cheaper than her counterparts.

No coincidence that Alpha Trion should lose his head at the same time as Blackrock's true identity is revealed; Alpha Trion is part of the Titans Return toyline (sporting the aircraft mode he is seen using in this issue).

When function triumphs over form!😲The 1940 Fleet Shadower requirement was for a highly specialized aircraft, intended to follow enemy naval forces over long times and radio back their positions. Both General Aviation and Airspeed built prototypes, but neither entered service.😉
@yolk_the_joke when you are standing under a Missile Tow its important to kiss those nearby as a sign of gratitude for the brave pilots towing illegally parked aircrafts!
The Dornier Do 23 started out life as a transport/mail-plane in the late 1920s, but it soon became the first medium bomber to equip the new Luftwaffe, in the mid 1930s. Several aircraft were still giving valuable service (as trainers for bomber pilots and crews), well into WW 2!
