Diemert Defender The Diemert Defender was an emergency fighter project invented by Bob Diemert of Manitoba.[1] It was designed in the Cold war as a mass produced counterinsurgency aircraft against the possibility of invading soviet troops.[2] It was later documented into a film. DevelopmentThe aircraft was designed by stunt pilot and WW2 warbird restorer Bob Diemert who previously worked on movies such as The Battle of Britain and was working on restoring Mitsubishi A6M Zero that were salvaged from the jungles of the south pacific.[3] During the 1980s, he designed his own aircraft which could be mass produced and a cost effective point defense aircraft for the RCAF.
