+SkippyBing 8 Posted June 4, 2008 My bad, the A-12 was the CIA's OXCART, the YF-12 was an interceptor version for the Air Force of which all of three were made, and then the SR-71 evolved from that. As for A-11 that may have been due to Lyndon Johnson misreading All Weather Interceptor as A11 Weather Interceptor. The A-12 designator was originally used as A stood for Article or Archangel (the follow up to the Angel program that produced the U-2) and 12 merely indicated it was the 12th design they'd come up with in that program. Being the CIA they could call it whatever they wanted I imagine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WarlordATF 1 Posted June 4, 2008 Which prototype of a pretty famous fighter plane used a Rolls-Royce Kestrel VI (695hp) engine? Would that be the Bf 109? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MigBuster 2,879 Posted June 4, 2008 Would that be the Bf 109? well you have to put some easy ones in I guess! yes - it is the Messerschmitt BF109 V1 in 1935 - well done ah the Irony! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WarlordATF 1 Posted June 4, 2008 The 109 has always been one of my favorite WWII fighters, for its time it was very advanced. Ok Now, another easy one, The Bf 109T was originaly planned for use on a german aircraft carrier, but the carrier was never completed and instead it ended up serving where?
