Well done gents

Well Done HP 🙂 , You were right as well Willy, I always go for strange shots, Or the least real profile with out markings if possible, Prototypes are good as well, And look a likes throw people as well quiet often, Thanks Everyone 😉 , Been fun 7 out of 7 not bad at all, I will have to try even harder now 😀 , Pitty I don’t have a scanner yet my Airshow shots go from full profile shots, To over the ropes and up engine tail pipe shots and such, I have some very close inside tail pipe shots of a F-16 and Su-27 just to name a few mods, Cheers for now, Tally Ho! Phil 😎

No. 5 is the Myasishchev VM-T Atlant. A conversion of the Myasishchev M-4 ‘Bison’ to carry large objects (Energia rocket sections I think).

Number 4: Bréguet 965, halfway between the Vultur and Br.1050 Alizé.
Number 5: Myasishchev VM-T, an external cargo hauler made from rebuilding Mya-4 and 3M bombers/tankers.

Quite right, I’m sure the original Firebrand had a Sabre engine, and then to get the thing to balance out correctly didn’t they move the cockpit to just forward of the tail. So what could it be

The early Blackburn Firebrand II…

Number 2 looks vaguely like a Blackburn Firebrand because it is by the same manufacturer. The Blackburn B-48 was developed from the Firebrand TF5 as a shipbourne torpedo bomber and unofficially came the Firecrest. First flight was in 1947, project abandoned by 1953 when the torpedo roll was dropped for strike and the Wyvern adopted.

It´s a 202, the 205 has got some ugly air intakes at the front.

Don’t think No 2 is a Spearfish, it’s a Blackburn but at this late stage on a Friday afternoon can’t for the life of me remember it’s name.

No. 6 Macchi MC.202 Folgore ?

No. 1 Looks like a mixture of Thunderbolt and Skyraider – maybe a prototype?

No. 5 I think they´re both Ladas.

I’ll go for number 3 as being that Argentinian Calquin.
