Hi Triton
Very interesting evolution from november 1941 to
july 1942 from the model to the mock up.
Before the model 36, we have the model 35
which seems to be smaller and with push pull engines ?
Have someone some details ?
Thanks

The what forum? I don't recognize the abbreviation.
 
Sorry, History, Politics & Current Affairs forum. Home of the TBOverse. I used to be a member, but when they moved to their current home, I didn't get around to re-registering and have being lurking since. Must decloak one of these days. Anyway, I'll send you the link via PM.
