Bah1 Must find a harder one  :D

Yes the miles M39b Libellula (named after something to do with dragonflys)

5/8th scale flying model first flight 22 July 1943, Intended to meet a specification for a 350mph+ day bomber with a 4000lb bomb load.  Designed with the intention of fitting it with 3 of Whittles W.2/500 jet engines.

Always thought this was a nice looking bird, will post a picture of it in flight if I can find it.
