Is it Swedish? Or French? It's one of those that I've read about, just can't for the life of me remember!

Of course, if it's neither of those, then I haven't a clue!

It's a Ruskie job. The I-215. Used RR Derwent engines that the nice Mr. Atlee and his chums had gifted to the Russians. I think the design bureau was Alekseyev (spelling?)

Sometimes you just know but then others will baffle you completely. Luck of the draw I suppose.
