Just think if they had a turbine engine and a little CAD and a little F-22 style computer aided flight controls and they would have had a winner! Cool pic |

Second prototype had larger vertical. So this could solve problem with stability. But other problem is exhaust gases. Stubs are in the rear part of fuselage and blow directly into the propeller blade. This disturb normal airflow and reduce useful output of propeller. In long term hot gases for sure would damage structure of propeller. So if this type could ever become alive this will be for sure with jet engine. And for sure it look like the US relative of the Komet  But it is not. Thank you for compliments
