The Australian Boomerang looks to fit the bill.

clue 5 led me to believe it might be a ship (the sister referance).
BUt out of curiosity, how is it labeled incorrectly?

the British mountaineer air landing division is labelled 51 highland ...should have been labelled 52 lowland ...
the 52 lowland was a mountaineer that was trained for air landing ... and there are a air landing counter ......so the unit has a counter (more or less)
but the counter was labelled the 51 highland division .. so the unit don´t have a counter
the sister units clue had to do with Scottish units ....
but the counter is clearly wrongly labelled .... the 51 highland was NEVER trained as a mountaineer or for air landing ....

Clue 1: I am a plane
Clue 2: My design might lead you to think I was intended for the previous war.

I have been going crazy the past couple of days trying to remember what the Germans called their units that got cut off during the Russian winter offensive 1941-1942. Hitler labeled it a tactic and insisted on it being used throughout the long retreat from Stalingrad.
I assume that virtually all of you know the answer to this (even some remote part of my brain does I am sure).
