The Noviplano

Caproni, an Italian plane-maker, created this giant aircraft in the 1920s. Its original intention was to carry 100 passengers across the Atlantic Ocean, but it never even made it out of the country. This hideous plane featured eight engines and nine wings, which sounds like a complete and total disaster in itself.

The Blackburn Roc

This fighter plane was designed with the intention of protecting other planes from being shot at by enemies. Right behind the pilot’s seat was a slot where four machine guns fit perfectly. The plane proved to be far too heavy and slow to do its job properly, and the Royal Navy stopped its production and wouldn’t let it fly. During WWII it shot down only one enemy plane.
