So many ideas for Polish aircraft turning up here Interesting 'cause they're hardly known both in the West and in Russia

I might be polish T-38 Talon. The one-seat light fighter like F-5 was projected to...

 

But if I know there was no prototype, only a model. Our government (of PRL) ask ZSRS is it "necessary" to build aircraft like this in Poland. And they said NO!!!

Masz rację co do powodu zamknięcia projektu -wielka szkoda :-(

Cóż takie czasy były....

Ale prototyp był- z sowieckim silnikiem RD-9 i bez radaru.

To ten egzemplarz ze zdjęc.

(eng. version)

You're right about reason that project was closed-very pity :-(

But it was a prototype-with soviet RD-9 engine(from MiG-19), and without radar.

It's on the photo.
