PZL M-15 Belphegor

7,404 Mrwhiskers85  8.9 years ago

The PZL M-15 , also known as the Belphegor, was a weird Polish Agricultural aircraft ordered by the Soviet Union to replace the An-2 biplane. A number of requirements dictated that the aircraft had a very odd shape. The result was the worlds only jet biplane, and has the distinction of being the slowest production jet ever. However, it was cancelled sfter being found to be uneconomical. This aircraft is one of my best so far so an upvote or two would be nice. Hope you enjoy!!

    @A5mod3us yeah, the high thrust angle is something that I couldnt really do anything about, so when you stall with the power on, it tends to flip over.
