The prototype Hornet flew in July1944, so I suppose technically it was the fastest (piston engined) plane of WW2 at 485mph. The fairing at the fuselage tail junction I suppose is the immediate distinguishing feature from the Mosquito.	Terry Porritt (14)

It isn't full size, but I don't know what the scale is, neither do I know what the engine is, but it isn't a Merlin. So it isn't really a replica either. I'm sure someone will have all the details.
