Kaproni-Balgarski KB-9-II Bekas
The KB-9-II Bekas was a significant modernization of the earlier KB-9, which first entered service in 1940 as a six-seat, twin-engine liaison aircraft. The aircraft featured upgraded avionics, improved controls, and a number of ease-of-manufacturing improvements. One of the most significant changes was the substitution of Russian-designed Tumansky turboprops for the original Argus V-12 engines, which provided one-fifth more horsepower for a minor increase in weight.
