(Explorer Challenge) Tysbin RSR

30.0k Dumpworks  7.1 years ago

This was a design for a Mach 3 strategic reconaissance aircraft as a contemporary for the US SR-71, the Tysbin went through various engines and designs, but the one they settled on (not this one, though I find this one cooler) used turbojets that were used by the MiG-21, at least 5 airframes were built but no engines were fitted and the program was ended by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev (activator 1 to detach drop tanks)
