Description:

F-5E modified under the SSBD (Shaped Sonic Boom Demonstration) programme to demonstrate how to shape a shock wave during supersonic flight and thus reduce a sonic boom. For the Czech reader is interesting to note that during these tests were also used planes L-23 Super Blaník that carried sound and pressure measuring devices. Preserved at the Valiant Air Command Warbird Museum.

Pánové, pánové :) Program SSBD a tudíž i tento kačer se létal v roce 2003. A Tu-22M3 je z jakého roku? No, kdo ví? :)))

Jinak je to krásná raritka, Marku díky za foto!

Nějak mě ten čumák velmi silně připomíná ruský Tu-22. Že by ti darebáci rusové už před desítkami let kopírovali nápady co se určitě musely v té době honit v hlavě chytrých američanů?
