Rogožarski IK-3[edit]

Rogožarski IK-3 (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

The Rogožarski IK-3 was the only home-grown modern monoplane fighter aircraft in service with the Royal Yugoslav Air Force when the Axis powers invaded Yugoslavia on 6 April 1941. The aircraft and their pilots gave a good account of themselves during the fighting, but were overwhelmed by the numbers of German aircraft and the expertise of the German pilots. The IK-3 design was used as the basis for the post-war Yugoslav-built Ikarus S-49 fighter. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 07:54, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • this appears to be unreferenced: "His rate of climb was too steep and the aircraft fell into a spin at low altitude and hit the water."
  • if possible, another image or two would help to break up the text, but it isn't a requirement
  • Thanks for the review, Rupert. I've fixed the citation and added a couple of pics. Unfortunately there aren't any free pics of the IK-3 that I have been able to locate, but I've added in what I think are relevant ones of other museum aircraft mentioned in the article.

Support -- I was the third and final GAN reviewer and passed the article there; I've checked the few edits made since then and find no issues, this meets the A-Class criteria as well.
I've also reviewed images added since GAN and all licensing seems fine. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 23:26, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
