look north

It is from a northern country, 19 built in all, this 1 was the only one with this engine and it was made for and sold to the air force of a neighboring country. The constructor is a "household" name, at least to the users of this forum, but he was not from the country in which it was built... in fact, he and another household name constructor colleague founded this company... and this is a wiki picture. This should help a bit, right?

Judging by the national markings it was used by Norway.

This is the Norwegian SA-14E Jaktfalken II designed by Carl Clemens Bücker who was the founder of the Swedish aviation factory named Svenska Aero Aktiebolaget .

I would love to roll open the hangar doors and have this little beauty waiting there. A very trim and clean design, looks like it is about to leap into the air.
Bücker was a topflight designer! But I have never seen it before this posting.

Looks like it would be fun to fly on cloudless warm beautiful day.

on take-off.

S.E.T. XV

I'm so sure that was the right answer, and I won't be on the puter for a day or so, so I go ahead with posting an easier one

Seversky SEV-3. I don't know which variant though. One source lists this same photo as the 'XAR' and another lists it as the 'L'. Still another simply says 'SEV-3'.

paaln · 03-31-2007, 06:27 PM

I think -L and -XAR is the same individual, just at different stages of its development... sev-3 is right, anyways
