North American X-15 Manned Rocket Papercraft

Posted by Michael James | Friday, February 22, 2008 | , | 0 comments »

It achieved it's few years of fame back in the 1960s, yet the remarkable North American Aviation X-15 remains the fastest and highest flying airplane ever manufactured. While the Space Shuttle Orbiting Vehicle achieves speeds of Mach 25 during reentry, it does not do so under its own power.

Though it was seen as just a step toward faster vehicles at the time, the X- 15 is likely to remain the fastest and highest flying airplane ever manufactured well into the 21st century. Indeed, on the 50th anniversary of its record flights, there was still no faster airplane.

This model is available until Feb. 29 only!

The Mikoyan Gurevich MiG-15 (Russian: Микоян и Гуревич МиГ-15) (NATO reporting name Fagot) was a jet fighter developed for the USSR by Artem Mikoyan and Mikhail Gurevich. The MiG-15 was one of the first successful swept-wing jet fighters, and it achieved fame in the skies over Korea, where it outclassed all enemy fighters except the F-86 Sabre. The MiG-15 also served as the starting point for development of the more advanced Mig-17 which would oppose American fighters over Vietnam in the 1960s. The MiG-15 is believed to have been the most numerous jet aircraft ever made, with over 12,000 built. Licensed foreign production perhaps raised the total to over 18,000-wiki
