Antonov A-40, KT.

Wow, I've only ever seen just a line drawing of it. Cool picture, Dmitry.

Check out the book Soviet X-planes if you like this stuff as much as I do.

  :)

[Edit: By the way, that is a TANK with wings attached!]

Sorry about the size, don't have access to any software to reduce it at the moment

KT it is  :) BTW the only test flight that I am aware of is took place with T-60 without turret. That you can on my foto. The one that you have posted does have turret and apperes to be during its glide!
