post-world war ii

I've always been fascinated by the late WWII - very early Post WWII Attack a/c prototypes. While most seem to have fairly good info about, the Convair XA-41 being somewhat elusive, I can't find much of anything in print or online about the XBTC-2 (not the XBT2C, sort of a Helldiver II). Heck...

Hi, The Original DC-8 design from; http://rides.webshots.com/photo/1512961648048918155wQlQmW

The world's largest land plane, the XC-99, made its first flight in San Diego on 23 November 1947. The XC-99, serial 43-52436, is a double deck transport variant of the B-36. It has a considerably larger fuselage, but was never fitted with jet pods. The wingspan is the same 230 feet, but the...

Just as I thought I have recognised a model of this fighter proposal at TsrJoe's tread (http://www.secretprojects.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,2019.msg17221/topicseen.html#msg17221) I was searching for some more on this unknown project. .... sadly that was all I found: ??? As a source this...

Available here: http://www.up-ship.com/drawndoc/drawndocair.htm This includes a very large drawings of the missile and booster meant specifically for model makers; Standard Aircraft/Missile Characteristics of two early variants; rare drawings of the 1949 over/under ramjet version; a few other...

These drawings can be found on the site Dutchsubmarines.com, albeit in multiple segments. The cargo submarine concept is a throw back to the WWI German concept - perhaps even the later the later "milch cow" u-boats? I do have to wonder if this design was prompted by the Dutch experience in the...

Hi, The Scaled Aircraft Composites designed and Beech built the UTT; it was a medium- size utility transport test aircraft with two tandem high-wings and twin turboprop engines,I have no drawings to it. anther Beech little known aircraft was PD.208 which developed from Model-99.

During WW II the idea of the transport glider was "en vogue", so several countries developed and built such types. One of them was Sweden. The AB Flygindustri of Halmstad designed a glider with the designation Fi 3 of wooden construction, intended for 11 troops plus pilot. Much better known...

Here is a link to the Never Were Warships thread where Autocad drawings of the Malta class are available. http://www.phpbbplanet.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=750&mforum=warshipprojects

In early secret project smurf posted this about a delta : I remembered this postwar Gloster F.3/48 counterpart : http://www.insigniamag.com/glost.html

Can anyone help me, I'm having no luck finding a 3-view drawing of this plane. TIA Longshoar

Dear Overscan, by the way the Ilyushin Il-74 and Il-27 were mentioned in english site, www.mda.org.uk/aircraft/9489.htm

Discussing the CC.2 in the Campini projects thread, the talk went on the Re.2007, a notorious fake. Since there is some interest in this and it seems that the "fekeness" ot the Re.2007 is not widely aknowledged, I give here a (somewhat lenghty explanation). Since we are in Secret projects, I...

- The 3-view of the Payen Pa.310 is shown on http://home.att.net/~dannysoar2/Payen2.htm, a site with other interesting Payen stuff, unfortunately only a small part of those projects, which could be shown ... :'(

Hi, Do you know the Wassmer Wa-70 light aircraft ?, it was side-by-side two seat trainer aircraft with T-tail (only a project). Wassmer Wa-53 :a Wa-51 with 125 hp Lycoming engine

Okay, does anyone have three-views of post-war business jets developed on paper by Messerschmitt? I'm referring to the HA230/Me230 and Me308 projects.

Hesham, please try to limit yourself to one program per thread ;) The Gnat replacement trainer requirement was AST 362. HS1173, P45 and Fo-147 are well documented in Project Cancelled and British Secret Projects: Jet Bombers. I don't have anything about Hunting H-155. AST 362 was filled by the...
