Prop to the left? Looks like a 100mm X 5mm piece of plate steel jutting out at top right, some sort of strut?

(Glad your Payen image sorted itself out)

Harley Quinn 31st Jan 2012 22:23

Looks like a very small exhaust; the surrounding structure gives it some scale, may be 3-4" diameter. Some sort of light drone helicopter?

sabredog 1st Feb 2012 07:03

Neither a strut nor a prop,Noyade,and thank you for your help.
Not a Drone,HC.
Quite a heavy piece of machinery and jet powered.

TheiC 1st Feb 2012 07:48

STOVL aircraft by any chance?

The bit top right is surely an antenna?

spook 1st Feb 2012 07:53

Looks like a reaction control nozzle of some sorts but I can't figure out the orientation!! Don't think its western though.

Harley Quinn 1st Feb 2012 09:22

See what you mean, must be a fairly short list; not Harrier, so maybe Rockwell VF12 or Yak 36 Forger?

SincoTC 1st Feb 2012 09:59

Just finishing my coffee break, so it'll have to be OH if correct!

Yak-141 ??

TheiC 1st Feb 2012 10:15

I think we may be looking up, obliquely, at the fore or aft end of an under-body fairing, hence the bilge access plate and antenna. Fore/aft axis runs top right to bottom left of shot.

Don't think it's a Yak, and I'm going off the idea that it's STOVL. Could be a military aircraft's APU exhaust or similar...

Noyade 1st Feb 2012 10:43

I think Trevor has it...

Well done,SincoTC, correct answer, the Yak 141.
A good effort by all participants on that one though.

Thanks SD,

Seeing as it's still OH, I'll take it back and put up another Intake,

Initial thought Trevor....the Beriev R.1?

SincoTC 1st Feb 2012 18:24

Well timed return Ken, I just got home!

Stick with that initial thought mate, it is the Beriev R-1 :D

The first Soviet turbojet-powered flying boat. Experience gained during the test programme with the R-1 was used in the development of the Beriev Be-10.

skytrain10 has control :ok:

skytrain10 1st Feb 2012 18:58

Thanks Trevor.
