That is the G.59 i don't think it performed better. Maximum speed was worse but it wasn't developed to be a combat aircraft.
But some were sold to Syrians for combat. In Italy both monoposto and biposto versions had only training propose.
Argentinians liked much and considered the G.55 a "winner" and superior to Spitfire IX in tests they made in 1950. "su capacidade de trepada y de virage era superior al Supermarine Spitfire Mk.9 como se pudo comprobar en una serie de evaluciones realizadas durente 1950" They also said that...
I would like some confirmation of this data, and if possible adding speed at what respective range is achieved.
I have some data but it seems too good to be true in some cases , also i don't have the speed for this performance so things might change.
Beaufort 1035 miles normal range w/1500lb...
I usually count 4 S.79 versions.
1- typical bomber version
2- typical bomber version with torpedo rack and sight
3- field mod with bomb racks taken out and an eventual 720lit fuel tank in place like said above. This aircraft are said also to have ethanol(?) injector for engine to give a boost...
Wonderful Greyman
Edit: do you know if any of these had radar - i see the Leigh light in your notes.
Edit 2: i notice that there is 890 gallons 3300lb bombs. Is there any reason that it could not take 3600lb or more fuel with that configuration. Since there is a 935 gal/3600lb
I am looking for cruise speed, range weapon load for this Wellington versions that had a more powerful Hercules engine.
I have some figures for range but i don't know the conditions and i am trying to establish that.
I am trying to establish the operational range of some Mosquito versions.
I bolded my questions but i included much other information.
I have this generic information regarding Gun armed and non gun armed Mosquitos
Gun armed Mosquitos
2 outer wing each 58 Imp gal of fuel(260L)+2 inner wing...
Sorry, by rarity i mean a case where a semaped tank has same fuel capacity as a non semaped one.
Edit:
A semaped tank has a much bigger volume, in wing tanks for example it would need not only to compensate for the lost volume in horizontal plan but also in vertical plan because initial...
