Heikkis' Silhouette Challenge
Plenum Chamber Burning - as per the Harrier.
I have given you the project model above.
The McDonnell Douglas Model 279-3 is a wing/canard design with a 48,800lb
gross weight for a ski-jump take-off. Powerplant is a PCB-equipped Pegasus-type
engine by Pratt & Whitney, associate to Rolls-Royce on the US Marine Corps
AV-8B Harrier II programme. Instead of the raked intakes associated with
supersonic flight, the Model 279-3 has short inlets of the type used
successfully on the AV-8B, but with half-cone centrebodies.
