Yes, me ! ;)

If I'm not totally wrong, they are downsized and somehow coloured version of those drawings,
I made some years ago for Mirage 4000's Le Fana article about the Nord VTOL/VSTOL designs.
Don't have they at hand in the moment, but will post them this evening.
 
As promised the drawings from Alexis Rocher article in Le Fana. Was a great surprise, when I
got the basic drawings back then, many thanks again !

? ? ?

This is the work of our own Jemiba, a.k.a. Jens Baganz...


Oh yes,


I meant this is a clearer one,of course I know the work of my dear Jemiba.
 
From 1961 Aviation Magazine small article...and its translation for those whose French is a bit rusty.

So, the 4210 had a Bristol Pegasus BS53/15, which is rated at 69kN
And the 4400 had a BS100 with 116kN dry and 160kN with plenum chamber burning

The 4300 clearly shows a lift fan instead of the cold nozzle of the Pegasus+a hot nozzle Pegasus.

I'm struggling with dating these projects. 1958 to 1961 range. Anybody?

However in the 1962 Aviation Magazine table about Nord Aviation, the 4400 is listed as a BS53/15 type and the 4120 the BS-100. Also the engine ratings are different. The 4300 is not mentioned. I ran thru all the items in the list cross checking with other sources. It is a mixed bag. Mostly it is accurate, but not always. The problem is that later authors referenced this very list. So, I favor individual source articles over compiled lists.
