First Soviet rocket aeroplane
First Soviet rocket aeroplane, the BI-1, on display struts at a museum. Developed by the Soviet Union, the full name of the design is the Bereznyak-Isayev (BI-1), after its designers. This single-seater experimental aircraft used a liquid-fuel rocket engine to create a jet thrust. It was designed in 1941, and test flown in 1942. The second prototype crashed in 1943. Only eight prototypes of this design were ever made. Photographed in 1969

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in the history of aviation - the First Soviet rocket aeroplane, known as the BI-1. Displayed proudly on struts at a museum, this experimental aircraft was developed by the Soviet Union during World War II. The BI-1 was an extraordinary single-seater plane that utilized a revolutionary liquid-fuel rocket engine to generate jet thrust. Designed in 1941 and successfully test flown in 1942, it represented a pioneering leap forward in technological advancements. However, tragedy struck when the second prototype crashed in 1943, leading to only eight prototypes ever being produced. Taken in 1969 against a snowy backdrop, this image showcases not only the historical significance of this early Russian aircraft but also highlights its sleek design and innovative engineering. The monochromatic tones add an air of nostalgia and emphasize its place within the annals of aviation history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of machinery exhibited outdoors, we are reminded of how far technology has come since those early days. This photograph serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of progress. It is through such groundbreaking achievements that we continue to push boundaries and shape the future of transportation and flight.
