Viggen 644 Posted April 22, 2010 Browsing Wikipedia when I came across this. The Convair Kingfish. I'd never heard of it before. Looks real ahead of its time. Looks a lot more like a bomber than a recon aircraft. Pity it never left the drawing board http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convair_Kingfish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lexx_Luthor 57 Posted April 26, 2010 Interesting story in the new book Rainbow To Gusto, about stealth and the U-2 and the "follow on aircraft." Kelly Johnson had zero interest in Stealth, so CIA went to Convair. So Johnson had to look into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
