Horten 229

I was unable to find the custom card done by Nightfall that I once had for this unit. I recreated this card based on what I remember. Any feedback would be great. I thought about adding some sort of Experimental SA that focuses on the fact that very few were built. Sort of like a limited numbers in a fleet build. I drew ideas for this card from other custom cards on Forumini, like the Me-262, He-162, Me-163 and the Ar-234B jet bomber. These 5 aircraft all share the fact that they had jet engines, which makes them IMO unique to most other aircraft in the game.
