Nce. Is that based on a real aircraft or pure fictional?
Empty Handed:
Its from a piece of art by a Peter Elson, originally found at the foot of this page.

Described as a MiG-23-on-steroids by Weaver over on whatifmodelers, I used a MiG-23 profile as a basis with tweaks. I also made a crude 3D rendition in SimplePlanes.

Thats amazing!! Great profile and what a Great find.
Love Elson for all his sci fi work, and somehow never came across his flogger. Not in any of my books either. Wow
Empty Handed:
Thanks. Elson's concept is just so wonderfully brutalistic. Very Soviet.
