Hello Hesham,

I see you have a very high interest in aircraft design proposals which never came to fruition.

I think Fokker and also Aviolanda never put any real effort in obtaining the possibility to become the main contractor simply because they were a Dutch Company and not a Frenc, German or English company.
So probably the Dutch ministry of defense gave both companies money to make a proposal and they did.
They accepted the money , wrote a paper , text only proposal and that was it.

I mean the design would have been very simple or not ? : same as Neptune, weight same as Neptune, replace engines with Turbo props

So for Fokker a F27 maritime on steroids and for Aviolanda practically a re-engined Neptune ( did Aviolanda have a design department ? )

Thank you Pim Pouw,

but just knowing those stuff is very interesting,also drawings could be great.
