In the very first years of aircraft carriers development both English and Japanese envisioned launch of their aircrafts directly from the hangar. This result was usually achieved through an opening in the bow, at the hangar level, and a catapult that launched aircraft in the ship's direction...

So, Austrians had Italian fighters Fiat CR.32 but why they didn't decide to develop their own fighters? Here's the pic of an Austrian CR. 32

Anyone solve the mystery?? Why, oh why did the JUNKERS G.38 4-engined prototype test-fly with a four-bladed propeller, inboard and a two-bladed propeller, outboard on each wing? All four driving engines were identical. Might this have caused any power imbalance/handling or thrust deficit issues...

Good listings of Soviet naval project numbers are difficult to find. Some were published in books following the events of 1991 and of course Globalsecurity published a list in the late 1990s. No details at all were released of merchant vessels, so about two years I set out to complete a list and...

The British Air Ministry created a designation system for the installations of radio equipment in the late 1930s, each number reflected the standardised installation of a particular radio transmitter or receiver and all the various elements including power units, aerial connections, and control...
