Description

The SNECMA C.450 Coléoptère was a French VTOL concept from the 1950’s.

As with many VTOL prototypes from that era, it used the tail-sitter design to land.

This KSP model recreates various aspects of the aircraft (deliberately or not), like the difficult handling, tricky landing, as well as the original method of being transported and deployed by a truck.
