Dutch company called Koninklijke Maatschappij De Schelde started an aviation department with the collapse of Pander & Zonen picking up that company's chief engineer in 1935. The aircraft had some unusual features. It was all-metal in construction, a reverse gull wing with twin booms. The De Schelde S.21 single seat fighter was powered by a 1,085 hp Daimler-Benz DB 600G 12-cylinder inverted V liquid cooled engine driving a pushed propeller via a shaft, which could be jettisoned in flight if the pilot had to bail out. The cockpit was extensively glazed giving the pilot a good field of view. Heavy armament was proposed for the aircraft with four 7.9 mm machine guns mounted on the side of the forward fuselage, a 23 mm forward firing cannon, with a flex mount allowing it to fire at a 60° angle in all directions, and one rear facing 23 mm cannon firing through the propeller hub, although how this was aimed is unclear.
