Hi again after long while. I recently finished some new 3d pieces so I thought I may drop these by. Below my latest (and some older) artwork for IJN's Mizuno Shinryū II. If you feel like it, look up more on https://www.artstation.com/senshi-isamu or https://www.deviantart.com/senshi-isamu. Cheers!

I've tried to collect the WW2 Japanese radar Type designation systems with data and if possible photos and drawings. Gathered from these sources: http://www.combinedfleet.com/radar.htm http://pwencycl.kgbudge.com/R/a/Radar.htm http://home.e01.itscom.net/ikasas/index.htm...

A most astonishing discovery. A photo of the Bf 109 appears on the Falkeeins blogspot here: Uffz. Karl Hannes 5./JG 2 and Erla factory Einflieger

Hi, the Brabazon Type-3 or Specification 6/45,the known tenders were; Airspeed,Armstrong-Whitworth and Avro-692 & Avro-693,but can I ask if those companies involved or not; Blackburn,Bristol ,De Havilland,Fairey,Folland,Handley Page,Miles,Percival,Scottish Aviation, Shorts,Vickers and Westland ?.

A knotty design conundrum! Using some 'imagineering', what if the Curtis XP55 'Ascender' and the Kyushu J7W 'Shinden' went into production and both spawned navalised variants for carrier deployment. The thorny issue of deck landing arises; 3-point tricycle landing gear means the awkward...

It is unclear if she was still in service post-World War II, but if she was still around in 1948 it is debatable whether or not she would have been technically entitled to the HMAFV (His Majesty's Air Force Vessel) prefix, given that she wasn't a powered vessel.

I'm putting together an article on the Wireless Set No. 10, which deserves to be MUCH better known - it was the first TDM and PCM comms system in the world. Sadly there is very little info on it, but I know that "Wireless for the Warrior" had a relatively detailed description including post-war...

When the Germans realised they needed self-propelled artillery (as opposed to Assault guns) to keep up with the Panzers, their initial efforts involved conversions of various captured vehicles to carry artillery along with the creation of three interim conversions based on tanks already in...
