Bristol Braemar is correct! A photo of the big tri-plane is available here: www.raravia.com/img/braemar.jpg

For a bit of history of the Filton flyer check out:

You have control.

Not the Shenyang J-8l, this aircraft is not chinese. You are going too far East stay where you were. This aircraft was not a success.

No this one is neither the Sukhoi SU-19 or the Lavochkin La250. Right country though.

This aircraft was designed by a well known aircraft manufacturer's OKB (Experimental Design Bureau) to meet a similar requirement that Sukhoi met.
