Most (if not all) of the units from the original Advance Wars game are basically chibi / super deformed of real life counterparts, and for most of the planes it's not difficult to see which ones:
- the Yellow Comet Fighter is obviously based on the legendary World War II Japanese fighter plane, the A6M "Zero"...
- the Green Earth Fighter is easily identified as an A-10 "Warthog"...
- and the Orange Star Fighter is based on an F-15 Eagle.
There are some differences of course, but looking up the real life counterparts provides lots of inspiration to make my hand-drawn papercraft Advance Wars series:

Grandfather was building them "sigh" what I would do to so I could fly one but then again like I said before an tank with wings so slow as hell
Have fun!
I'd also love a new, "classic" Advance Wars game! I think I would prefer keeping the turn based mechanics, though but hey, I also preferred the old graphics better and look what happened... ;o)
