Spinners Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Douglas F-6C Skyray - 178th Fighter Interceptor Squadron, United States Air Force, 1966 Even better if they'd had the little-known and underrated Skylancer. 2 Quote
+Stratos Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 COOOL!! This one requires a release!! BTW, what is a Skylancer? Quote
Spinners Posted April 23, 2014 Author Posted April 23, 2014 COOOL!! This one requires a release!! BTW, what is a Skylancer? A beautifully streamlined Skyray but supersonic (Mach 1.4 on the same J57 engine). It just came to fruition at the same time at the Crusader and failed to get an order : ( Quote
+Wrench Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 don't forget, in Real Life , Navy Skyrays WERE attached to ADC Quote
Spinners Posted April 24, 2014 Author Posted April 24, 2014 I know. This was a reply made by me on my long-running thread on the 'what if' modelers website. Spinners, how about a USAF ADC Skyray? I'm not really a request show but that's a good call as the Skyray was a fast-climbing interceptor and VF-3 was, in fact, the only USN squadron to serve with NORAD winning the NORAD Trophy in 1957 and 1958.
