A fourth English heavy bomber existed ...

Great stuff!
Beside just being sooo Bristol, your Pudding heavy bomber is like something straight out of Bruce McCall's Major Howdy Bixby's album of forgotten warbirds - and that's high praise! I especially like your second dorsal turret tucked in behind the cockpit canopy. Brilliant :smiley:
Your Consolidated-SNCASE SE.121 is completely bonkers! I love it ... SE.100 meets B-24 meets Klingon Bird-of-Prey. The barbettes on the u/c outriggers really take the cake ;D
-
The SNCASE SE.121 looks very... French, with the tail pods.
-
Don't forget the extraordinary long range high-altitude SuperLancaster ...
-
Thank you Apophenia and Frank ! I have for you with the SuperLanc' this hyperStirling ...
-
Don't forget too that German are great ingeneers ... helped by my friend Tophe !
-
Love your SuperLancaster ... kind of Avro's take on the Ju 488 ;)
And anything that gives the Stirling more wing is a good thing :smiley:
-
^^^^
Totally agreed! :smiley: :icon_alabanza:
-
Great concepts :smiley:
"And anything that gives the Stirling more wing is a good thing" Exactly my sentiments.

All due apologies. Still, ya gotta love Bruce McCall's stuff.
It would be impossible to pick a favourite from that Bixby series. But, the least convincing was his Avions Septum NC 2501.2 high-altitude bomber. Real French bombers of the time were waaay uglier and much less plausible than McCall's spoof!
