Republic XF-12 Rainbow
The Republic XF-12 Rainbow was a four-engined reconnaissance aircraft designed for the USAAF. Designed during the Second World War, the first of two prototypes had its first flight on the 4th of February 1946. With the end of the Second World War and the introduction of jet aircraft, the USAAF lost interest in the project. More photos here.
