Similarities to the Soko G-2 Galeb, yes. Alas, not from Europe. Only two were built, one is on display at a museum.

A project. Detailed specifications and artwork in the net. From people who have done serious stuff that flew.

Lightweight, yes. Versatile multi-purpose. Not Asian or African. Spiraling now towards correct region…. .

European, yes. No reference to an existing design, at least not from the designer of this one (BTW the designer refers this and others designs as "aircrafts")

PS The designer calls it "prototype". I am not very clear about the WC terminology on when a project becomes a prototype that hasn't flown.

Concept - project - mockup - prototype - prototype that flew - ….

LM, I need to go to a doctor's appointment, so OH, or the thread must wait at least two and a half hours. Sorry. (Not for the appointment, just a check-up).

Yes, David, it has and I toyed with the idea of asking if it was a jap but went the wrong way!
Here you go .......

Blimey - boots filled!!!!

Four piston engines and the uniforms indicate probably military.

Obvious question - Yank or Rusky?
