This extraordinary plane was used by both the English and the American army. The TransFighter was designed to carry passengers from base to base, but also to function as a fighter plane. Super efficient, but in reality, the Transfighter was too big and slow for air battles and too small and unstable for passenger transport. The Transfighters were stored in a desert base, which was abandoned in 1951. The planes are still there, under 5 meters of sand.
