In February 1945, inspired by the Japanese airmen, the USAAF founded the Kameekase Squadron, with Northrop K-61A Dark Widow, specially designed to prevent bailing out of pilots lacking bravery at last... (Oh, I do not like warbirds, sorry...)

Tophe · « **Reply #726 on:** June 18, 2015, 02:58:38 PM »

There were a few problems remaining for the Kamicase general, and when Lockheed proposed the K-38A, he ordered the triplane K-38NT to "crush cowards", he said:

The final K-38NT+ had a rear low tailplane for wheels (no need of catapult for take off), 6 engines total, and a reduced span for supersonic dive:

The K-38TT Trining (Tandem-Three-Engines Lightning) did the same with less engines: threatening pilots for them to do the job and die "properly"... (even if they refused to take off without parachute):

Out of the Kameecase death squadron, a derivative was the P-38KK (P-38FF for France as KK cannot be sold there, KK pronounced as caca meaning sheat...):

Still in the same family, the X-38A was the piston-racer (with no parachute to save weight) that reached Mach 1.01 at Reno 1951. This is still secret as the jet companies put the secret on it with billions $ reward (but I have not received my monthly payment so I say it all

)...:

The French (Max Holste factory) double MH20 was coded Mh-20Z by the German RLM but it was then changed into MH-2020 (and MH-2020B), not imagining that a year 2020 could actually exist someday...

Yes, the Me-163 was a (very efficient) interceptor, with high speed (swept wing, transonic) and propeller-less nose (dangerous for the opponents), but... what? a tailless rocket-plane??? $:-\$ No, let us be serious, this was in 1944 not in 2044!

Oh, I do like that last one - would make a nice recreational plane.

Thanks GTX! and... with his time machine (set at +70), Willy Messerschmitt has heard what you said and proposed from Argentina, on July 1st, 1945, the Me-163M Menschen (for the people), without gun nose nor dangerous monotrace ski for landing:

I doubt Argentina will pay you $ billions Copyright, though, if this one is built in million copies...

Oooo ... twin-boomed Komets! Very nice :)

And now something different: Mirage with short wing chord:

Thunder butterfly...

The Dassault seller told the General: "look, the price of a double-delta is not double from the delta basis but just 50% more! and our triplex-delta now are not 3 times more expensive, 300% no! just 180%! Taxpayers will enjoy for sure!"

Tophe · « **Reply #739 on:** July 21, 2015, 02:06:35 PM »

"The 3-jet version of the triplex delta is of course a little more expensive, but cheap anyway: 270%! With 8% discount if you order more than 1,000 copies per year!"

The next Mirage of mine is not a slanting view, sorry, but weird anyway...

Tri-mirage is top!, Tophe! Nice work

Now that's an extreme and unusual take on "variable geometry wings"!

Thanks!

And now...;
Official announcement, by the French Government (today, April 2nd, 2017): “We deny completely, solemnly, that an ‘O-wing Mirage’ (absurd!) would have reached last week Mach 50 and disappeared in outer space. Flying saucers do not exist! The lunatic joker Tophe who drew this very bad joke yesterday will be sent to jail for having thus insulted the glorious memory of the late military pilot Chris Miller (certified Human!), who disappeared last week in an ocean crash near the Malaysian Airlines Triangle. Shame on this sinister Mr Tophe! (whose French nationality will be removed as punishment).”

Tophe · « **Reply #744 on:** July 23, 2015, 09:52:16 PM »

What?! Adding double-saucers, all witnesses reports would be confirmed?? No! The psychiatric squad must attack RIGHT NOW! And shoot! No prisoner! (in the War for Official Truth vs. Heresy!).

Tophe · « **Reply #745 on:** July 23, 2015, 09:54:30 PM »

“Uh? According to new reports from merchant ships crossing the Channel? Javelin-like and Typhoon-II-like flying saucers from our side? No, impossible! Maybe the French government would ally with Extraterrestrial aliens or what BUT like Napoleon would NEVER use British technology! (except turbojet, and radar, and stealth, and…)”

Tophe · « **Reply #746 on:** July 23, 2015, 09:57:48 PM »

"No! This Mirage 5W Waterloo is a step too far, far too far! Yes, officially, death penalty exists no more in France but a 12-bullet (or double-bazooka) suicide is common, for self-punishment of “intelligence with the enemy”! Liberty squad: action now! All together: fire!"

(signed: Tophe, probably dead and burried now...)

W wing! Really interesting.
It could have a version with it positioned "under" the fuselage.
Very creative!

Tophe · « **Reply #748 on:** August 01, 2015, 10:54:27 AM »

Thanks!
So I have made this W-Geist= Weist version, while the W shape does not appear (that is why I used high wing at first), but a little starboard wing extension makes it all right (at first sight). Thanks again!

Thanks a lot!!!

By the way, weist (2nd/3rd person) in German comes from the verb weisen that means to point / point out or point at. Depends of the sentence
