| Good photo Wurger. The Tupolev PS-9. In 1934 one was 'dressed' as a crocodile. It was connected with a peculiar institution in Soviet aviation, the 'Agitation' Squadron 'Maxim Gorki'.  Last edited by Graeme; 08-02-2007 at 08:22 PM. |

| Very impressive Evan. Well done! The Orkan is described as "a cross between the Breda 88 and Breguet 690". Congratulations also on your recent writing success. |

The first version of Scorpion was prepared in December of 1988.At the beginning of 1991 the project was corrected ( the 1:1 scale model of Scorpion shows the conception from that period of time) in order to get higher speed and payload.In 1993 there was made a decision to continue the project but because of the politic changes in Poland in that time, the project was shortly abondoned. So, the project is almost 20 years old.
