Hi,

Some very free interpretations of existing types and projects, I think. The "Development
of Skoda ramjet" looks like a swept wing version of the Skoda P-14, the "plane developed
by Russia from German designs" has characteristics of the Fw Ta 283, the "Flying wing tepe
British" could be a downsized Boulton Paul P.111/120 and judging the cockpit and inlet of
the "Flying duck supersonic ranjet", a Leduc type was used as pattern. But as said before,
someone took a lot of artistic freedom !

Yes my dear Jemiba,


and the two canard aircraft was new by that time,as I think.
