Hi!

Can somebody please provide me with data on the dimensions (length, wing span, height etc.) of the Gloster F.34/35 concept which was a twin-engine fighter with turret?

Thanks,

HoOmAn

Are you talking about the Gloster F.11/37 turret version of the G.39? Or the Gloster F.9/35 single-engine turret fighter?

F34/35 developed from F5/33 which had two Aquila engines. The Defiant performed best in it's F9/35 category, and the F34/35 category and ended up being built instead. Gloster's design eventually developed into the G.39.
