The 'What If' Aircraft Wish List

[+Gunrunner 313]

HrntFixr, that wouldn't be a what-if, the M-21/D-21 couple was used a few years before being retired, the D-21 proving fairly inefficient and an accident at launch destroyed a M-21.

For a time D-21 were even launched from B-52s IIRC.

 

M-21s were two seat variants of the A-12 rather than SR-71.

I should have said that earlier, but I second the wish for a Mirage 4000!

Any hard core whatifer may already know it but for the rest, here is a resource that may be useful or simply enteresting :

and some food for thought:

 

F-108, Cf-105 And Tsr-2 Combined?

 

Cheers

Somebody hasn't been paying attention...

 

 

Also, that first website you posted is inaccurate. There were no plans for the F-108A to carry 20mm cannon (or any guns for that matter).

FastCargo, I was paying attention. I duly did my homework before posting and I seen your gorgeous screenshots, but as far as I know, no F-108 have been released yet. Did I missed something?

 

You are of course right about the guns but throwing the baby out with the bathwater would be an error since, as you may probably admit too, the various digitalized historical documents made there available are worthwhile, certainly for that price (ie. for free!).

 

Best regards

[+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,545]

I have the Ye-152 A and M version on the pipe, something similar to the Hawker design. If there is any interest I would finish it and release it.

[Spinners 15,968]

Powerful looking brutes aren't they?

[+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,545]

Realy powerfull and larger, I have somewhere a comparison pic between a MiG-21 and a Ye152.

[FrankTB 14]

A couple of interesting what if's really like the Yak-43

[+WhiteBoySamurai 1,092]

My number one wish would only require a new skin:

Hey, it's a very real possibility!

 

My next one is a bit more far-out, but might not be too difficult to do:

 

A Silent Eagle with canards and TVC from the ACTIVE.

Tell me: Great idea, or GREATEST idea?

[+ace888 327]

I have seen the Eagle on one of the Anime movies...? I cannot remember which one?

120,000 lbs of thrust at least as manuevarable as a typhoon = mmmmmmmm

(iv modified a tsr2 in game to that power and turn rate but iv no idea how to alter weapon loads or looks)
