Description | Weapons of the future - fighter aeroplanes |
Details |
Artist's impression of an idea under consideration of the French Government - aeroplanes with invisible wings, to make them difficult to be spotted by the German Air Force pilots. The wings are thought to be made from cellon, which is a cross between mica and celluloid. This appears to be an alternative front cover to the ILN.
