“Looks like a ME109 to me.”

Very close, but the wing tips and canopy are a little different.

I never would have seen that comparison. The Sea Fury was a beast, almost P-47 like. 109s were minimalist, dedicated fighters. Like an F-14 compared to an early F-16.

Actually it was rooted in the FW 190 the Brits captured early in the war
