Re: Rehearsals for an AU
Main gun looks enormous, what is it?
Re: Rehearsals for an AU
Earlier I was nagging about "not happening much here in SB." Then I realized, I'm one of those silent ones...
First; to Ody: sorry for this late response. That gun is (if I remeber right) from Heuhen design factory 155mm naval gun.
So, plane time added with a glimpse of space stuff...
2 "normal" jet engine and 1 SABRE-type engine to allow "jumps" above normal atmophere. Jet engines work as attitude control in vacuum/thin air with thrust vectoring. Really nasty s.n of a b...h for an enemy... It can carry a lot of stuff as stealth;and far. As you know A means attack and S means spaningen (reconnaissance). Spöken means ghost
30 was planned for Scandinavian Union, but only 20 build because of high cost. It was considered enough; especially after realizing capabilities of the plane.
