An enquiry from one of our chaps.
He made the comment that Vickers designed a radial-engined fighter around 1936 which lost out to the Sprifire in the production stakes. He felt it would have been a real winner if it had been produced.
Never heard of it, but if someone can shed a ray of light, he’d be obliged??:confused:
G’day 😉

Gee Coop,
Why didn’t I think of that [Googling]?? Ta!
This may have been where he got the info, but has anybody got any idea if it’s more than a paper exercise?
G’day 😉

Powered by one 625 hp Bristol Aquila radial – hmm – don’t think so.
