IAR-90 'Uliul'

47.8k Phantomium  7.2 years ago

Designed by the IAR bureau in 1973, the aircraft was gonna replace the aging MiG-15s and MiG-21s and become the main fighter of the RoAF. Work on the first prototype was completed in 1975, but the project was canceled due to a high production price and overall disappointing performance. Years later, it would become the groundwork for the IAR-93.

AG 1 for the chute. Other than that, the plane maneuvers really well, despite being as big as a barn. This one is a slightly modified reupload.
