Cool. What was the purpose of joining two airplanes like that?

I really didn't know anything about it, but found this interesting:

Also as a nightfigther with the "second guy" being a radar operator rather than a second pilot.

A whole page without bacon? Let’s fix this.

note: Yup, that’s a bacon vending machine. What a time to be alive.

Not sure the brand of camera he uses, but I'm sure it starts with a C or N. All of his photos are very good, so I guess he doesn't need a k3.
Almost forgot, BACON!

One of the prototypes, then? I imagine they didn't make many of those! Well, I guess they didn't make a whole lot of the production series either.

Twin turbo prop bacon!

As long as there are those who don't choose bacon over a K-3 our work will never be done.
