Some old friends from deep storage...

Thought you guys might like to see some of my older whiffs.

First up, the Bae Cerberus Stealth Bomber...



During the late 1980's, a 'large amount' of information on the F-117 was stolen from Lockheed's design office.  Everyone assumed the KGB was responsible.

Everyone was wrong.

Five years later, in great secrecy, the Cerberus was rolled out to a small, need to know audience from the British Secret Service, and the RAF.



Designed to operate as a strategic recon asset, with a precision targetting/strike capacity, the Cerberus enhances its stealth by having a totally enclosed cockpit with no canopy, the crew relying on cameras and sensors for navigation and situational awareness.

Great idea on the bomber. Is that a 1/72 F-117 being made into a 1/144 multi-seat craft? The white dry brushing threw me for a moment and I thought you may taken a project in the dark side (card modelling) of the force.

Nope - this is a 1/48 F-117 scalorama'd into a 1/72 two seater!

Here's a little 'ole Alt.History bird from '04, the Curtiss P-43 StubHawk





This is an American Expeditionary Force aircraft (think WW2 International Legion, but with their own airforce), with WW1 derived camo scheme.

Interesting! A tail-lesser design, looking like something out of Crimson Skies'.

Love the Stubhawk -- shades of the Moskalev SAM-7
