Daffney Belta MKII

20.1k Odge  8.4 years ago

The Daffney Belta was a prototype Delta-winged aircraft designed by the Daffney air organisation for the English commonwealth Air force. Unfortunately, the politicians want to buy missiles rather than Aircraft so the project was shelved. This version has the movable nose section for landing as the nose can obscure the runway use VTOL to operate.
