MARTIN BAKER JET PROJECTS

[pacopepe]

Does Anyone have any information about the early jets (after 1945) of Martin Baker?.

I´ve only seen some pics of the MB6; indeed similar to Gloster CXP 1001.


All the best

「The Martin-Baker MB.6 was a jet fighter project that was made in 1945, just before the end of the World War II.​

It would've been a single-seat jet fighter made of all-metal stressed-skin with a low wing. The fuselage was going to be cigar shaped with an air intake in the nose. The tail was designed to be conventional all-metal single-fin and rudder with a tailplane and elevator positioned on top of the aft fuselage.​

The most notorius feature was also that it was going to be fitted with skids undercarriage instead of the conventional tricycle wheels. However, most likely they could've been replaced by wheels.​

It wasn't specified what engine would fit, but it was most likely the Rolls-Royce Derwent. The cockpit was placed in the nose with a clear bubble view and it was going to be armed with four 20mm Hispano cannons placed at the front with a provision of 200 rounds per gun.​

​

The Martin-Baker MB.7 was a project of a Delta shaped interceptor for the F.43/46 air ministry specification, which, most likely, was the official that was going to be given, to the Martin-Baker Delta which we already covered previously.」​
