Gloster Meteor Mk Z

630 HansUlrichRudel  4.0 years ago

This aircraft in my mind was designed by gloster as a supersonic interceptor calable of mach 2. However due to the complicated manufacturing process and the cost of such an intense aircraft, they eventually gave up the idea with only two being fully completed. However one was converted into an aircraft for scientific research while the other is in a muesuem. No controls cuz its so simple.
