Nyeman KhAI-5

by: Roelf

Description: The Nyeman R-10 (KhAI-5) was a Soviet reconnaissance and light bomber aircraft, designed in the mid 1930s in the Kharkiv Aviation Institute, under the direction of Iosif Grigorevich Nyeman. The first prototype of the plane, with a factory designation KhAI-5, flew in June 1936. Despite a lower performance, the aircraft won a contest against another reconnaissance plane design, the Kotcherigin R-9, and was accepted for a production with the military designation R-10. The aircraft entered service in the Soviet Air Force in 1937, replacing some Polikarpov R-5s. R-10s were first used in combat in the Soviet-Japanese Battle of Khalkhin Gol in 1939. Then, they were used in the initial stage of the World War II, starting with use against Poland in the Invasion of Poland (without combat encounters) and against Finland in the Winter War (1939�1940). R-10s were next used in the first period of the German-Soviet war, following the German attack on June 22, 1941. By this time, they were outdated and suffered heavy losses.

Renard R.31

Roelf — Fri, 03 Aug 2012 22:45:15 -0400

by: Roelf

Description: The Renard R.31 was a Belgian single-engined parasol monoplane reconnaissance aircraft of the 1930s. 32 R.31s were built for the Belgian Air Force, the survivors of which, although obsolete, remained in service when Nazi Germany invaded Belgium in 1940. The Renard R.31 was the only World War II operational military aircraft entirely designed and built in Belgium. The R.31 was hopelessly obsolete, and those that were not destroyed on the ground in the early hours of the German Blitzkrieg invasion of Belgium in May 1940 were ravaged by German fighters as they bravely attempted to gather information on the German invasion.

Saunders-Roe S.36 Lerwick

Roelf — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 01:19:55 -0400

by: Roelf

Description: The twin-engine Saunders-Roe Lerwick was an attractive and compact design intended to meet a medium-range maritime reconnaissance requirement, but was a total failure. It displayed a determination to roll and yaw in cruising flight. Moreover, stalling tests showed the Lerwick to have vicious traits, the stall under alighting conditions being accompanied by sharp wing-drop. Nevertheless 21 examples were produced and the Lerwick was first delivered for service with No, 209 Squadron in December 1939 at Oban, but after the type had flown a small number of semi-operational patrols it was decided to abandon further efforts to rectify its problems.
