I thought it would be fun to have a thread with various interesting aircraft designs (one smallish photo and short description with designer name if available). Preferably GA, but I realize some of the more interesting aircraft are military. I think this could serve as design inspiration for others.

I'll start out with a few.

BV-141: reconnaissance aircraft developed by Blohm and Voss during WWII. Designed by Richard Vogt.

Dyke Delta JD-2: Designed by John Dyke. 3.5 seat, retractable gear
