    Swiss Panzer 74 info

    Hello all. I have been reading up on Swiss MBT programs and concepts in the last few days and I noticed that Secret Projects does not yet have a thread dedicated to the Panzer 74 proposal. I am aware of the Tank Encyclopedia article on this matter but I thought I'd ask this forum.

    K+W C-37

    The C-35 and the C-36 are well known, actually built, aircraft of "Eidgenössische Konstruktionswerkstätte" in Thun. The planned C-37 is rather less known. Last year I had the chance to re-work an 1978-article of "Cockpit" and I was lucky to get to see a painting of Roland Eichenberger -...

    Postwar fighter projects from Switzerland (Schweiz / Suisse)

    Hi until very recently I had no idea the Swiss undertook the design of jet fighters in the 50's. I believe that two designs were produced i.e. FFA P-16 and the N20. Appatrently they were poor, mainly due to being underpowered (?). I wonder if anyone has any more details, refs or 3 view pics...

    Swiss MBT 1980's

    Interesting front engined MBT proposal for the Swiss Army, the NKPz ended up to expensive and the auto loader was apparently problematic.
