Another doomed aircraft. Too late and too cumbersome (according to the late Eric Brown). Meant for a large aircraft carrier that was cancelled, and thus the plane was cancelled as well.

After a couple of relatively easy ones - here is a difficult one (I think).
Hint: The building in the background shows the location to be Copenhagen's Kastrup Airport

Right you are Big Brother - your turn
Due to the restrictions on the German aircraft industry after WW1, some of the companies moved out of the country.
Rohrbach went to Copenhagen.
The Turkish government ordered 50 Ro-IX and two prototypes were built. However after a couple of crashes nothing further came of it.

I didn't see anything flawed with the design other than the elevators being a bit small, but it seem like a really neat little plan that Ro-IX does..

American, concurrent of Douglas A-20, if my memory is correct... I just do not remember ! I think the constructor is more known for little airplanes, but not sure...
