Looks like a Hurricane with topwing tacked on.

Exactly that.

 

[Airframes]

It is. I was going to reply with the other name it was known by - 'Slip-wing Hurricane'. The idea was to create lift and range, with the upper wing being 'slipped', or jettisoned, when ready for action. Didn't get very far ...

 

[Grampa]

Ok I found something here for you guy's.

 

[Airframes]

Looks familiar. Maybe that Russian seaplane, but I can't remember its designation.

Can't believe I would have got one right!!! (the slip wing Hurricane)...too late to post though! (Rats! Foiled again!)

New one looks like the ass end of a cargo type, with early warning (or similar) radome.

 

[wuzak]

KC135?

 

[Grampa]

nope sorry

 

[Grampa]

ok here some hints. It's a two-seat ground attack/reconnaissance version with extended camera nose.

 

[A4K]

RF-101 Voodoo..?

 

[Grampa]

nope not that ether.

SK 60C?

 

[Grampa]

Correct Andy it's the SAAB SK 60C. converted from the Two-seat jet trainer SK 60A.

 

[andy2012]

Here is one, if it is too small, tell me and I can try to enlarge.

 

[wuzak]

Yokosuka MXY7 Ohka?

 

[andy2012]

Well that was quick! You are right wuzak!

 

[wuzak]

The orange with the red insignia gave it away.

I won't be able to post another one for a while, so feel free to put up another.

...I won't be able to post another one for a while, so feel free to put up another.

Ok, I'll toss one up there and see how it goes...

Clues will be forthcoming upon request

 

[Airframes]

MiG 17 ?

 

[GrauGeist]

holy sh!t, Terry...that's it...next time I am showing only half of a rivet and the photo will be half the area of a postage stamp!!

Yes, It's a Bulgarian MiG-17, weathering poorly at the Burgas Airport in Bulgaria

Well done, My friend!

 

[Airframes]

Heck, it was a guess, having seen the gun camera port on the '17 before! And I'd forgotten you'd posted pics taken recently at Bourgas, even though I replied to your thread!
I'll post something later tonight.
