Medvedya · Mar 29, 2005

LWS6 ZUBR

Polish medium bomber of the '30s.

DerAdlerIstGelandet · Mar 30, 2005

You might be right there, I was leaning toward a French or Dutch bomber at first but I think you might be right.

toffigd · Mar 30, 2005

yes that is LWS-6 Zubr, later named LWS-4 Zubr - the only difference between them was twin and single tail

DerAdlerIstGelandet · Mar 31, 2005

Good stuff.

Here is one, but I think someone will get it pretty quickly.

red admiral · Mar 31, 2005

CAC Kangaroo?

DerAdlerIstGelandet · Mar 31, 2005

Nope not it.

toffigd · Mar 31, 2005

DerAdlerIstGelandet · Mar 31, 2005

Yeap thats it, I said someone would get it pretty quickly. Its a XP-72.
