Good evening Harley. :)

Russian?

Noyade 13th Jul 2012 22:37

Now it's starting to look very odd.

Why would it have a fish-mouth looking exhaust outlet?
The heat deflector - why so long?
Is there a similar exhaust on the port side?
Ventral rocket outlet below it?

Hmmm.....

Harley Quinn 14th Jul 2012 00:09

You need to go a bit further west
It is a twin and there was a small rocket motor installed.

Noyade 14th Jul 2012 00:18

You're a good man Harley! :ok:
Thank you for that.

Looking....

(Must be bedtime? Don't wait up - Cheers)

Harley Quinn 14th Jul 2012 00:23

Looking forward to seeing the right answer (as usual) in the morning.

Looking forward to seeing the right answer
That's the spirit! Unfortunately, not from me I think.


bit further west
I'm thinking Poland? And I can't get the MiG-19 outta me head. Did the Poles do something weird and wacky with one of their MiGs?

And that rocket...France would be more than a "bit" west, wouldn't it?

Hmmmm.....

Dassault MD.550 Mirage ?

Noyade 14th Jul 2012 06:40

Ahhh....I think you have it Brian. Nice one Harley....:)

Harley Quinn 14th Jul 2012 06:44

Indeed, evansb has it; the Dassault MD550 Mirage I, progenitor of the rather famous line of delta's

evansb has control

evansb 14th Jul 2012 17:16
