Douglas
Model 1856 Six-Engined Jet Bomber
An in-house manufacturer’s model of a proposed
six-engined jet bomber, dating from the early
post-war years. Made of wood and sitting
on a metal stand, the nameplate is inscribed
with the word ‘secret’. The inner engine
pods have side intakes and presumably contain
the main undercarriage legs.
A very elegant looking aircraft – and with a
690 cm span, a very striking model - nothing is
currently known about the project. The model is
almost certainly unique. |
