    Zmaj R-1

    Hi friends! Recently I discover this jugoslavian aircraft of the 1940. From what I understand, it was a light bomber stopped at the prototype stage. Unfortunately I have found very few pictures and no drawings: does anyone know anything more and have a 3-view? Thanks in advance for your answers!

    Boulton Paul Defiant

    I was wondering...(always a bad sign)... The Defiant proved quite effective for a short time, until Luftwaffe crews quickly learned its limitations. How good a fighter might the Defiant have proved if it had been designed from the outset to have a more conventional armament arrangement rather...
