Postwar Morane-Saulnier and SOCATA Projects

[hesham]

The Morane-Saulnier MS-915 project was derivative from MS-900 and
MS-902.
other Morane-Saulnier MS-710 and MS-711 fighters projects was
intended to compete Dassault MD-450 Ouragan,and I am asking
did there anther rivals to Ouragan ?.

Aerospatiale-SOCATA X-270 was a project of two seat touring light aircraft.

good evening,

My dears,
I discovered that the Morane-Saulnier MS.1000 was not compete the Mirage-III
but it was involved in 1953 programme for a new intercopter,with Berguet Br.1002,
and Nord-1400 Gerfaut.

Also:

Morane-Saulnier MS.810 COIN aircraft and MS-1000 fighter which intended to compete Mirage-III.
Morane-Saulnier MS.886 :was MS.885B with 150hp Lyc O-320-E2A engine.
Morane-Saulnier MS.887 :was a four seat MS.880B with 70 1b TOGW increase and 125hp Lyc O-235-F2A engine.

Were these version just projects, or actually built ?
(You know, I'm always keen to find Morane types ! )

Dear Jemiba,

the MS.886 and MS.887 were actually built,and they were mentioned
in the first source for general aviation in the message I send you before.

Thanks a lot my dears Jemiba and ChuckAnderson,

SOCATA HALE:high altitude long endurance (HALE) surveillance aircraft
was used the fuselage of TBM-700 but with much larger fin
and tailplane and increased in wing span.

SOCATA two projects:
TB-15 was TB-10 but fitted by Porsche PFM.3200 engine.
TB-16 was TB-20 but fitted by Porsche PFM.3200 engine.

From the book, Les Avions de Combat Francais 1944-1960 Volume I,

here is some Info about MS-800.

Although I have the book,Morane Saulnier Ses Avions Ses Projets,

but there was a Project for convertible road/air VTOL aircraft,powered
by one piston engine,I think it was never mentioned in it ?!.

From TU 260,

it could be VTOL,V/STOL or even a STOL Project ?!.
