Регистрационный номер: V3142 [7] Air Ministry Specification F.11/37, issued in May 1937, called for a twin-engined two-seat fighter fitted with four 20mm cannon in a power-operated turret. A contract was placed with Boulton Paul for the P.92, a half-scale model of which was built by Heston Aircraft as the P.92/2, serial V3142, seen here. The dome atop the fuselage represented the outline of the wide-diameter low-profile turret.
Entry to the Boulton Paul P.92/2 had to be made when the Gipsy engines were not running, using steps placed between the nacelle and fuselage.Самолёты на фотографии: Boulton Paul P92/2 - Великобритания - 1941
