McDonnell XP-67

The McDonnell XP-67 Bat or Moonbat was a prototype for a twin-engine long range single-seat interceptor aircraft for the United States Army Air Forces. Although the design was conceptually advanced it was beset by numerous problems and never approached its anticipated level of performance. The project was cancelled after the sole completed prototype was destroyed by an engine fire.
