The rival design to the Saturn, this aircraft required extensive R & D in order to function, causing huge delays. Although intended to be ready before the end of the 80's, the prototype didn't fly until 1993. Considering... that, the project was shelved. However, it's design ended up being used as the base for the B-18 Stuntman, a much more successful aircraft.
