Some of Yugoslavian aircraft projects

[duf1]

Hello, this is my first post here.
I am currently making 3d models of various Yugoslavian aircraft's, some were built but many of them didn`t go past the drawing board .
So to cut the long story short, here are pictures of Yu supersonik or NA (Novi Avion). You will notice similarities with French Rafale, next is Ikarus P 453 MW kind a like Batman`s personal aircraft .
Here are pictures of these two beautiful planes .

Nice. Very clean models. The M-wing plane at top is rather interesting; I wonder how well it would have flown.

Ikarus flew two times like a glider. It crashed on second flight because of ground effect. It was planned to have two small jet engines, but crash of test glider and availability of F 86 witch were offered by the USA sealed the faith of this plane.

I see that I missed those jet inlets the first time on the fuselage; I had initially thought the wing pods were prop engines. Do you know what they were actually for? Fuel? Sensors?

 

[duf1]

Well in those wing pods were landing gears. It was just like this render. And who knows there were maybe fuel tanks or other electronics . It is funny that there is very little info about this project, but that will not stop me from completing this 3d model .

Hi duf1. Nice to see a render of Ikarus,

I think you have this reference:

and about the paper model you can have a bit more pictures on this thread:

Yes I am using that picture as reference . And that paper model looks fabulous, I might just build one . Soon I will post more pictures, but first I need to finish some other things.

Great stuff! If you're accepting requests, I've always liked the little Ikarus S.451 series, especially the first one with the underslung engines and the 20mm cannon that looked too big for the plane.

I think that I have seen model of those Ikarus series . I will try and find them out.
