RMI 8
Comments
Album info
The RMI-8 was a Hungarian twin engined fighter project. Pretty much all information on the project, blue prints, plans and other RMI prototypes, were lost when the Allies bombed the RMI facility in 1944.
What is known is reconstructed afterwards by Winkler László at the end of the 1950's, however a lot of information about the state of the prototype is still unknown, most likely forever.
The aircraft was likely a combination between the Fokker D.23 and the Messerschmitt Bf 109G-2. Likely Fokker blueprints got to Hungary sometime during the war, as the D.23 was encountered in the Winkler Archives. The Hungarians then likely partially replaced it with the Me 109's to create the RMI-8
