| Northrop XP-79. An intersting view. From this angle it looks like one of the early Horten sailplanes. The side intakes gave it away  |

| Hmm, maybe it is a little difficult, this is how it looked like when ready. (maybe I should post it in the ugliest plan tread?  )

| That's the same airplane? Are you sure?? The one up top has retractable gear and the wingbox is lower, right?

| I found this as being the same plane. The lower one has a (very oldfashion) retractable gear. It is a sort of prototype and in the first picture they were rebuilding it, so the gear and probably the spinner changed. I don't think the re is difference in the wingbox, though

 | I don't know what it is, but she's worthy of a place in the ugliest plane thread
