Its actually the North American Aviation NA-98X Super Strafer.  See here:  https://oldmachinepress.com/2012/09/02/na-98x-super-strafer/

There's also this oddity:

Single vertical tail vibration test rig maybe using a B-25B airframe?
I can feel a WHIFF folder coming on

It's actually from the movie Tora! Tora! Tora! where it was modified to look like a Douglas A-20.

Thanks, BT!

Good to see you're still popping your head in, from time to time.

This is so cool!  The overall design, the camouflage scheme, the shark-mouth..... 

Looks fast just sitting on the painting stand. 
With the gear tucked in, it would look even faster, though.  But that might just be my predilection for in-flight builds speaking....

Thanks heaps, Moritz!


I tend to build wheels-down to give me something to stand the builds on. However, I agree with you about how fast she looks.

So, the B-27K I have planned, which I think should look even faster, may get the flaps-up, wheels-up look (depends on how the Hasegawa B-25J behaves).

I'm not sure if I want to do the bomb-bay open or not, depends on whether the Hasegawa kit is up to the standard of the Airfix kit in that regard (Airfix's bomb-bay looks good straight OoB but I, also, have two Eduard upgrade sets for it (one for the next Airfix B-25C/D I get)).
