The MIG-15bis (NATO: "Fagot B") has aerodynamic refinements and a 5,950-lb. s.t. Klimov VK-1 (Nene development) turbojet, whereas the older LIM-1 has the earlier Nene development, the 5,450-lb, s.t. Klimov RD-45F turbojet. This view shows clearly the wing slipper tanks, rear air brakes and nose armament (two 23-mm. Nudelmann-Suranov NS cannon and one 37-mm. N cannon on the starboard side).

  • This silhouette of the Dassault Etendard VI shows that is has the same wing planform as the Super Mystere B2. The leading edge, however, has been shouldered (thickened) at the root, and this is claimed to increase control at low speeds. The wing also has double-slotted flaps and movable leading-edge flaps, all being electrically operated. Airbrakes are mounted under the fuselage and give a deceleration of 4g at a speed of 400 m.p.h. Armament consists of machine guns in a detachable pack and a wide variety of stores can be carried under the wings. Production version of the Etendard VI will be powered by a Bristol Orpheus B.Or.12 of 6,723-lb. thrust (8,168 lb. with afterburning). A photographic-reconnaissance and a two-seat trainer version are to be constructed. Dimensions: Span 26.9 ft., length 39.3 ft., height I 1.4 ft.
