Description
Experimental plane designed to use its supersonic shock wave as a weapon
It was meant to fly very low at ~1.4 mach and deploy a drag inducing 'wedge' to generate a massive shock wave at as much as 6psi blast overpressure; enough to destroy buildings and kill soldiers
never built as Russia did not have powerful enough engines
Still, a very cool looking aircraft which would not be out of place in a sci-fi game, even
designed to be printed on an FDM printer
model in full dimensions in blender 2.93LTS and exported from blender 2.79b* at 1/100 for the .stl file
scale down to 35% in the slicer for 1/285 size
