[center][size=12][b]The Yakovlev Yak-38 (NATO code name: Forger) was the Soviet Naval Aviation's first and only operational VTOL multi-role combat aircraft. Though outwardly similar to the British Harrier Jump Jet, it followed a completely different configuration. Apart from having a vectorable engine in the rear used for flight, two smaller, less powerful engines were housed in the front portion of the aircraft and used purely for take-off and landing.

Therefore, i think ive found another 'tri jet' as this aircraft does indeed have three 'jet' engines

It is powered by 1 x Tumansky R-28 V-300 turbojet, 66.7kN (15,000 lbf) plus 2

Woah, it does look like a stretched out Harrier! Great looking shot, very clear.

Russians over LA? Scary!

Great shot!!

Yes! Kudos to you! Chalk up another for originality! After reading your freeware post first, I was so hoping you went with this one! 8-) 8-)
I did manage to find 3 other planes aside from this and the one I chose that are three hole fighters/bombers.(trivia time anyone? )

I kinda stopped when i found this, so im unsure of the other tri-jets out there to be honest!!! Thanks for the comments though fellas

Just what I've come to expect from you Simon!

Excellent screenart! I love it! Good luck.
