Was it built and flown?
Is that a loud speaker - top right? |
I've no idea what that is top right. The one sample was never finished hence never flew.

The troop carrier was never finished as Stalin was convinced that the two 18-cylinder radials this aircraft was designed to accommodate were much more needed in bombers. Its italian designer wasn't amused but hey, such is war. And Stalin wasn't the one you'd actually want to argue with. Much easier and healthier to go with the flow and work on ekranoplanes and such.

Looks a tad like a wide-body Airspeed Ambassador. |

Must be Bartini - which makes this the T-117...?
Looks a tad like a wide-body Airspeed Ambassador. Rather advanced Russian (Italian) transport aircraft with pressurization, being widebody, having a ramp, high wing etc. All yours Noyade. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....d143075256.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....4abbf38339.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....f773eae679.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....e37b4b4b29.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....95dceb017b.jpg |

They're available in a variety of colours/markings - not just white...
