Oh now that would be a nice subtle whiff!!!  Radial C-130 in early natural aluminum and MATS markings.  Would certainly fool some folks  8)

Either R3350's or R4360's.  Perhaps turbo-compound R3350's?  I like that choice based on Lockheed's experience with the R3350 in the Constellation, Super-Constellation, and Starliner as well as the Marieta plant's experience with R3350's (B-29's were built there by Bell during WW II)>

There's a definite something A-4 Skyhawk-ish about them from that angle. Neat little plane.

Great shot!

I think those are "smart bomb" training rounds. I.e. guided but no explosive.

It'd cost and arm AND a leg to build THAT in plastic! Not to mention taking up an entire room's worth of floor space to store it anywhere.....
