Smile Info on the plane

Reference information is available and here are some pages from Yefim Gordon books. Lots more available on the web including pictures of plastic models.

Notice the radial flow compressor jet engine configuration. That "fat" circumference does not go well with speed, let alone supersonic speed. They would have to wait for a better axial flow compressor jet engine with a small diameter to go fast!.


I love experimental planes!
