    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!
