The Hiena was a dedicated ground attack aircraft armed with four 30mm ENA-60 cannons on the nose and a powerful 37mm anti-tank gun below. It also had a defensive dorsal turret with two 20mm ENA-50 auto-cannons.
It was heavily armoured and could carry up to 5000kg of bombs, rockets and guided anti-tank missiles.
With the introduction of the new "Ragnarok" Stealth Ground Attack Aircraft, most "Hiena"s were converted into forward air controllers to support the troops on the ground.
This is another "old" plane that I made in 2014. Recently I bought 4kg of Tan and Reddish Brown parts at Skaerbaek (Denmark) so I´m pretty sure most of my next builds will have camouflages like the plane above.

Dedicated to the greatest champion of all time : Muhammad Ali.
In the worst moments of my life, his attitude and documentaries like "When we were kings" were helping me to keep my head above water.
I wrote to my grandfather 6 months ago to tell him to fight disease with strength like Muhammad was. A few days later, he passed away.
I'm sad Muhammad Ali passed away too.
Hands-on, time for training, for boxing, for fighting.
"Fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee."
RIP Muhammad Ali.
Chesterfield Parish Church is an Anglican church dedicated to Saint Mary and all saints, located in the town of Chesterfield in Derbyshire, England. Predominantly dating back to the 14th century, the church is a Grade I listed building and is most known for its twisted spire; an architectural phenomenon which has led to the church being given the common byname of the Crooked Spire. The largest church in Derbyshire, it lies within the Diocese of Derby, for which it forms part of the Archdeaconry of Chesterfield
The spire was added to the 14th century tower in about 1362. It is both twisted and leaning, twisting 45 degrees and leaning 9 feet 6 inches (2.90 m) from its true centre. The leaning characteristic was initially suspected to be the result of the absence of skilled craftsmen (the Black Death had been gone only twelve years prior to the spire's completion), insufficient cross-bracing, and the use of unseasoned timber.
However, it is now believed that the twisting of the spire was caused by the lead that covers the spire, which was added 300 years after it was built — before this it was covered with oak tiles. The lead causes this twisting phenomenon, because when the sun shines during the day the south side of the tower heats up, causing the lead there to expand at a greater rate than that of the north side of the tower, resulting in unequal expansion and contraction. Add that to the weight of the lead (approx. 33tons) which the spire was not originally designed to bear and that it was not sufficiently braced for the weight of the lead, the twisting effect that can be so clearly seen on the spire was inevitable. Also it was common practice to use unseasoned timber at the time the spire was built as when the wood was seasoned it was too hard to work with, so as unseasoned wood was used they would have made adjustments as it was seasoning in place. These theories can be rejected as there is evidence to suggest that the spire was straight for the first 300 years after it was built and as wood seasons within 50 years these theories now can hold no weight.
In common folklore, there are numerous explanations as to why the spire is twisted. One is that the spire was so shocked to learn of the marriage of a virgin in the church that it bent down to get a closer look. Should this happen again, it is said that the spire will straighten and return to its true position. Another is that a Bolsover blacksmith mis-shoed the Devil, who leaped over the spire in pain, knocking it out of shape. Many other such stories exist, these are two notable examples.

La gazza ladra, The Thieving Magpie, is a melodramma or opera semiseria in two acts by the Italian composer Gioachino Rossini, with a libretto by Giovanni Gherardini based on La pie voleuse by Théodore Baudouin d'Aubigny and Louis-Charles Caigniez.
According to legend, before the first performance of the opera, the producer assured the composition of the overture by locking Rossini in a room, from the window of which the composer threw out the sheets of music to the copyists who then wrote the orchestral parts, to complete the composition of the opera.
As such, The Gazza Ladra is best known for the ouverture, which is musically notable for the use of snare drums. Stanley Kubrick has taken the overture to achieve bizarre and dramatic effects in "'A Clockwork Orange". This memorable section in Rossini's overture evokes the image of the opera's main subject: a devilishly clever, thieving magpie.
