Tier3:
DAR-7CC (Prototype build,but no good picture survived):





                                  






Tier4: 
LAZ-7 (the most mass produced Bulgarian plane):













Tier5: 
ZAK-1 (LAZ-7M):







Tier6:
 LAZ-9 (Project only):



Tier7: 
LAZ-12:









Bulgarian made ground atack planes:
Tier2:
KB-5 Chuchuliga:



Tier3:
DAR-3 Garvan3

DAR-3 Bulgaria's first indigenous design to entering series manufacture as a combat type offering a reasonably contemporary specification:
Upper wing Span: 11.90 m.
Lower Wing Span:10.85
Length:9.45
Wing Area:37m2
Empty Weight:1320-1440 kg.
Maximum Take off Weight:1910-2100 kg.
Maximum speed: 275 km/h
Cruising Speed:250 km/h
Rate of climb: 8-12 m/sec.
Service Ceiling: 7000 m.
Endurance: 3.30-4 hours.
Range: 1080 km.
Crew:2
Armament: Two 7.92 MG propeller synchronisers ,and one 7.92 for the observer, 200 kg. of bombs on external racks.

Engines:
P-1: Lorraine Dietrich 12Db-12 cylinder ,liquid cooled V-engine-400h.p.(298 kW)
P-2-Gnome-Rhone Jupiter 9Akx-9 cylinder,air-cooled radial engine-460h.p. (343 kW)
G-1-Wright Cyclon WR-SGR 1820 F3-9 cylinder air-cooled radial engine-630 h.p.(469 kW)
