World War 2, Air Battle
“The Butcher Bird”
Check Your 6! rules 
For the first few months of its combat career, the Allies were entirely unaware of the new German Fw 190 Würger (Shrike) fighter. They attributed pilots' reports of a new "radial-engine fighter" to Curtiss P-36 Mohawks which the Germans had captured from the French.  Then one day in late June 1942, an intact Fw 190 A-3 landed on a British airfield by mistake.  The Allies realized the true nature of this new fighter, calling it, appropriately, “Butcher Bird”.
