Martin Bakers greatest product was the ejector seat. Probably saved more pilots than any other. Their aircraft are interesting but I'd rather see some of the missing mass produced types first.

That kangaroo is the ugliest fighter I have ever seen hands down, uglier than the F-35.

had MB not put so much frenzy in the details, his work might have gone further.
His prototypes are among the most innovative of that time.

and the MB5...  a Spit XIV would look tame in comparisation.
Sadly it was not meant to be. :(
