Does anyone know the truth of the aircrafts radiator? I've read that the original Re.2006 fighter design was to take inspiration from the Re.2001bis to be significantly more streamlined. I've seen artist impressions showing it with no radiator, with a smaller radiator, or sometimes with one that is still as big as the Re.2005s. Do we know what the truth is?
