Micromir 1/72 Trident II

The Trident II is a French supersonic combined power prototype interceptor equipped with a rocket engine at the tail and jet engines at the ends of both wings; it made its first flight in December 1955. Sud West, ordered by the French Air Force to develop a base defense interceptor, began research in 1948. The Trident II was manufactured with two Chulbomeca Gavizo turbojet engines, and one two-chamber SEPR 631 rocket engine. The Trident II recorded a top speed of 2,092km/h (Mach 1.92) in 1956, and a world altitude record of 24,300m in 1958. Unfortunately, the plan was canceled due to the concept of air defense using missiles rather than manned aircraft, and the successful development of the Mirage III.
