Designed as a single-seat orbital interceptor/recon space plane, the Hyper Sabre is used by the NSASA* on highly classified missions.

This was bashed from a 1/72 scale ESCI F-100 and a Monogram 1/200 Shuttle, a Revell 1/72 X-15 supplied the one eyed pilot.

He's baaaaack with! Great looking kit bash!

That is excellent! :smiley:

Superb!

The F-100 works well for this idea as it's got a really flat bottom. The 1/200 shuttle has a nice one-piece wing on the bottom, unfortunately it's a smidge too narrow to fit the F-100, so I had to cut the wings off and apply them "conventionally".
I did a similar thing using a B-1 and a Shuttle in 1/72. Seems like North American designs fit together even when they're very different designs. :)

Magnificent, Alvis!
You have an amazing knack for this and it looks so convincing I'm sure many could be fooled!
I like the B-1 Shuttle too.
Out of this world!

Beautiful!! That one-eyed pilot could be the gent who was flying the M2-F2 when it crashed (immortalized in the opening title sequence of "The Six-Million Dollar Man"); he lost the eye due to infection while he was in the hospital after the crash. He was a great help in sorting out the B-2A's cockpit.

These shuttle winged wonders are fabulous. WOW :-*
What all you BTS folks (everyone) can do with styrene/graphic imagineering is tops. This is the place to be !
-
Both are amazing! Great rescaling of the Shuttle wings!
-
Both of your space planes are awesome, well done 8) 8) 8) 8)

That's one possibility, he could also be the fictional evil twin of a Skylab astronaut. Evil twins wear eye patches, or goatees. I'm not sure which is less acceptable in a test pilot however.

I’m imagining this space plane perched on top of a booster like the dynosoar project. Nice work!

Whoa! Love your Hyper Sabre :-* The Rockwell-MBB X-31 goes orbital! :smiley:
