Hi Kitbag.

Three glasses of red and I'm starting to hallucinate.

A clue at your leisure with this one would be much appreciated mate.

Cheers.

(Military? Say 1960's?)

That's well hard! Give us a hint! It looks to me like something from the early jet age. Hard to say, though.

Nice drawings there, could do with a bottle or two of quaffing red here right now.
As for the ac, it was a prototype of a twin engine machine that never entered production. A European design, the engines came from RR. It was derived from another unsuccessful supersonic single engine type from the golden age of experimentatin mid to late fifties.

That was a difficult one. Two RR engines?..... More like one and a half, one Derwent plus a little Soar.

Have a go at this one
