Hello Mel - long time no see. :)
Issat German? |
Hi David. Hope all is well. This one is not German.

Evening Mel.
Can't figure out the surroundings, seems like it's not linked to the "outside". Is that some sort of asbestos cloth at bottom right? Looks like an old photo? |
Hi Graeme. The photograph is not all that old possibly early 1990s. Not sure about the material it may well be an asbestos blanket type material. It is all part of the aircraft's structure.

Is it the back-end of a turboprop,with overwing exhaust..?
|
Is it a lift engine from the SC-1?
|
I like Sycamores idea but given that it's early 90's maybe a piece of Soviet lifting gear?
Yak 38 lift engine? |
I think it's a RKBM RD-41, one of a pair in the front of the Yak-141 Freestyle supersonic VSTOL prototype ??
I remember seeing this at Farnborough in '92 |
F
86 Sabre? |
SincoTC has it. It is indeed one of the pair of RKBM RD-41, installed in the front of the Yak-141 Freestyle.

Do I see a clamshell/petal type thrust reverser?
|
F -105 Thud..
|
Good morning David,
No Mate, this aircraft used a brake 'chute; you can see petal type airbrakes, but the "clamshells" (I think of them as eyelids) were for adjusting the tailpipe's orifice when using reheat! Edit: Not a Thud sycamore! |
Ah I see!
A la Olympus (except this one aint'). |
Possibly the BAC 221?
|
not just possibly SD, it is the BAC-221 :D
