They were testing this plane during the end of WWII, just think how much more whipped those germans would have been if we had that!!

It's the Goblin, a "parasite" test fighter designed for the Convair B-36. Increased range and mid-air refueling rendered the idea obsolete before they could perfect the tricky launch and recovery process.

Its an XF85 Goblin - there is a big hook behind the pilot and its meant to be caught and swung up into the belly of a B-36 Peacemaker. The armament was four x .50 cal and the skilled test pilots could hardly make the big catch, so only two were built.

USAF Museum in Dayton OH has one of these. Believe it or not, they seem even smaller in real life.
