America’s Strangest Plane Destroys an Entire Army

June 27, 1950. Seoul has fallen. At Suwon Airfield, American civilians are trapped as North Korean fighters strafe the runway, destroying transports one by one. Enemy armor is twenty miles away and closing. North Korean radar picks up five unidentified contacts approaching from the sea. The flight leader squints through his La-7 canopy. Whatever these Americans are flying doesn't match any aircraft silhouette he's been trained to recognize. The shape is wrong, grotesquely wrong. Two of something merged into one. Double where there should be single. A North Korean squadron that hasn't lost an engagement in three days is converging on Suwon Airfield, where 1,527 lives now depend on these bizarre American contraptions. --- Join Dark Skies as we explore the world of aviation with cinematic short documentaries featuring the biggest and fastest airplanes ever built, top-secret military projects, and classified missions with hidden untold true stories.
