The 'What If' Aircraft Wish List

[Spinners 15,968]

No changes from me since a similar post on the mainstream General Discussion last year.

 

1. Saunders-Roe SR.177 (jet/rocket powered fighter)

 

2. AFVG (Anglo-French Variable Geometry - a short-lived 1960's predecessor of the Tornado)

 

3. Hawker P.1121 (like a Thunderchief on steroids)

 

How about you?

The Saab 36 - a Supersonic Medium Bomber.

[macelena 1,070]

Hispano Aviacion- Helwan HA-300. It was a second generation lightweight interceptor, kind of a MiG-21 with a Mirage III, developed for the Spanish Air Force, then passed on to Egyptians

Fantastic news!

[Vampyre 24]

Advanced Super Tomcat 21

 

F-111H

 

AH-64N Sea Apache

[+Gunrunner 313]

The whole Mirage F/G family, namely :

Mirage F.2 (tandem seater, single engine, F.1 type swept wing, strike oriented)

Mirage F.3 (single seater interception version of the F.2, theoretically shorter)

Mirage G (tandem seater, single engine, swing wing, modification of F.2)

Mirage G.4 (tandem seater, twin engine, swing wing, strike oriented)

Mirage G.8 (single seater interception version of the G.4, theoretically shorter)

Mirage G.8A (fixed swept wing variant of the G.8 to decrease cost, the wing was very different from the one used on the F series)

 

And then...

Mirage 4000

 

From our british neighbours I'd take the Hawker P.1154 (rather than a French Mirage IIIV).

 

And a large fries and a large coke, to go.

well mdatelmi beat me to it on my whish list.

Guys if you put a 3-view or link to one that might give us 3d guys an urge to make one of these aircraft.

i whould like to add

the Ryan XV-5A

 

the only 3-view i found onthe net sadly :(

[the test pilot 5]

well, i would really appreciate anything that can operate from a carrier deck, VTOL or CTOL is not a problem, just able to land on carriers.

I think these would be great for mercenary use or by anyone whose formative years were the 80's
