• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

has one of these ever been built?

Apparently one has been built; you can see it in the photo you've linked too.... Or do you mean for Fs? ;) I'm quite sure no Fs models exist, probably due to lack on interior information.

Looks like a typical odd Russian design, but yet the nose reminds me of the German Henschel 129! The engines are in an odd position for a ground attack aircraft IMHO, and the gunner station in the back seems a bit odd for an aircraft last displayed in 1992..

I'd hate to be seated in the outer rows on that flying wing.... :isadizzy:
 
That IL-102 looks like a strange breed. A little bit IL-28 Beagle, a little bit Me-262, a bit Su-25 and a little bit Grumman Avenger. I don't think it would've been good for much of anything. It clearly was too small to have any range, I don't think it would have been much good at close air support and that rear cockpit makes me think it was so slow they added a rear gunner to keep people off it's tail.
