light attack aircraft in the anti war "shock and awe"

More information on the Seabird Aviation SB9 Stormer:

STORMER SB9

The STORMER SB9 concept is a development of the SEEKER and will offer a cost-effective, fixed wing alternative to the militarized helicopter for operations in hostile environments. Typical mission profiles include border and coastal surveillance and interdiction, military reconnaissance and liaison.

Experience gained during the development of the SEEKER will be applied to the STORMER SB9, intended to be a larger aircraft with similar configuration and aerodynamic design as SEEKER with, in its military configuration, a ‘Cobra’ or ‘Apache’ helicopter-type forward fuselage.

As the STORMER will be some 40 to 50% larger in size than the SEEKER there is scope to develop a number of variants, including a 4 to 6 seat passenger aircraft. The design intent is to develop a common rear assembly comprising the tail assembly, boom, wing and engine but offer a range of fuselages forward of the firewall.

Our intention is to offer a cost-effective, fixed wing alternative to the helicopter for operations in hostile environments. Basic design parameters are:

* Turbine powered (750 hp) with constant-speed, reversing propeller.
* 4 hours endurance plus statutory reserve.
* Crew of two (Pilot and Observer/Systems Operator) in tandem configuration.
* Payload of up to 1,000 kg carried on inboard/outboard wing or stub-wing hard points.
* Increased wing area.
* Standard fuel carried in wing tanks. Long-range fuel option carried internally in fuselage.
* Increased volumetric capacity to install surveillance and photo reconnaissance equipment as desired.

The STORMER would be built aerodynamically and structurally similar to the SEEKER to take advantage of the experience, certification and established manufacturing process of the SEEKER.

I remember hearing about these aircraft many years ago, not long after the Start of the Iraq War because many speculated the new Iraqi Air Force would possibly buy such aircraft since they did buy the Seabird Survellience aircraft.

Thanks for this batch of rarities. The link's text is rather unclear though.
For twin-boomers, your picture 4 seems to be called LDK Bartini and your picture 5 seems to be called SHS. Picture 3 would be Triple Amphibian Teal, twin-boom or simply twin-fin? Google pictures don't help.
Thanks anyway.

3) but they are dangerous enough, in hands of pilots not having experience suffices

как it is possible to transform UH-18SPW Hoverwing into the high-grade plane?It is necessary to add small wings (Box Wing)

Idea of plane REKS = a rhombus экранолет a class C

Box Wing + Ground Wing + a boat air cushion

The industrial-design group (with experience in firm Dry) intends to make again developed ЛА
the raised safety Scope - 10000 mm Length - 8500 mm Height of 2100 mm the Area of wings 20,85 м2
the Maximum take-off weight - 1400 kg of Obem of fuel - 300 liters
the Maximum speed to 500 km/h Cruiser speed of 260 km/h Range of flight of 1100 km Capacity of engines - 2х200 h.p. aviaconversion Mazda RPD Useful


loading:
1) 70-110 kg the pilot
2) Luggage of 300 kg for launch with field ВПП 100м Running start/run - 100/120 meters with useful loading 300кг and 300кг fuel

The design is developed with a priority on the decision of problems:
1) small landing speed, stability to flaws at the
2) controllability ЛА on small landing speed
3) ability ЛА to automatic "self-stabilization" at external indignations, and piloting errors - on the most dangerous modes (take off and landing)

The plane of the lowest cost = $50 000

Great addition, thanks. This one is refreshing the forgotten family of twin-float/boom seaplanes, like the Levasseur PL-200 of 1935 (http://fighters.forumactif.com/t29591-levasseur-pl-200-ou-pl201 )

I'm surprised, no mention of the Transavia Air Truk;

There was a militarised version proposed but I can't find a picture of it.

 

[bigvlada]

I always wandered what was the name of the plane from Mad Max 3 ;D

What do you know, there is one operational Airtruk in Serbia (some of you might remember me saying that there is a plethora of types in serbian agricultural aviation, but this is a genuine museum piece ).

This Transavia PL-12-M300 Medivac is in the Australian Aviation Museum.

Who built that plane? And what's the point of the video?
