Reliable witness here. It was rumoured that this beast was an effective
crop duster because it frightened the bugs away.
Strangely, I don't have the urge to buid one. - John.

Wow, that Tacit Blue looks like the space camper van out of Spaceballs the Movie !
And to think it was the fore runner of US stealth technology.

Got a super reaper as part of a deal. I think it qualifies.(so does everyone else in my club). Was going to try to improve it with paint but was told that was impossible. It's available, really it is.

It's an PZL M-15 Belphegor (the name means demon in Polish). It was a Polish design for a Soviet requirement for a jet powered agricultural aircraft. One of the slowest pure jets on the books as well.
If you are every in Poland, go see the Muzeum Lotnictwa Polskigo in Krakow. It's one of the most interesting aviation museums I have seen - tons of old Warsaw-pact designs including Migs from 15 to 25, and a huge collection of engines. Also a M-15 Belphegor .

RE: I need to build an ugly jet
Hello
I jumped on this thread a bit late.
The Yokosuka MXY7-K1 Ohka, I guess could be classed as an ugly jet, but it definitely is something different. Check it out here http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=yok...C9PW8QOC2ZiMBA
I do remember seeing a picture of a RC jet one at the Nuremburg toy fair last year.
BUT by far the ugliest machine to ever take to the sky's with jet engines strapped on to it is the Beriev Bartini VVA 14.
http://www.google.co.uk/search?um=1&...9l2-3.5.1l11l0
Yes this contraption used to grace the sky's over the kaspian sea during the cold war.

RE: I need to build an ugly jet
Hey RC MAN not to sure I can help you, but I have an F-15 I was working on and it may be big enough for your liking. It is just plain ugly just sitting there and you could paint it red or some thing ugly. 1/6 scale 130" length , 85" span and plain ugly sitting there !( and only a short drive away) Brad "Maddog" Metcalf
