WOW! I wouldn't have pegged that for a relative of a Mustang until you pointed it out. Very nice. :)

Beautiful! I'll take it! Bigger brother to the Navion, I take it?

Cheers,

I like it - Bigger brother to the Navion
Anyone have a suggestion what engine it would have ?
500-600-700-800-900-1000 HP ?

JP Vieira · « **Reply #533 on:** April 05, 2012, 06:28:45 PM »

Thanks for the comments.
It is a 1950's design with a spacious belly cargo/fuel bay.
As for the engine it has to be perhaps in the 1000hp or more.

JP Vieira · « **Reply #534 on:** April 05, 2012, 06:33:47 PM »

Of course the US Army had some of these NA Appaloosa.

Love the name NA Appaloosa :)

I am thinking of doing one of these but I am going to keep the Merlin and the radiator intake on the belly. Think of it as a high performance tourer..

WoW ! that Vietnam Mistel is just asking to be built in plastic !!

Perhaps a large air-cooled IV-12 engine? Say some of the European designers of such engines came over post-WW II and went to work with Ranger to bring out new engines?

Hello
The Grumman F-17 Wildcat was a single seat version of the Tomcat.
It was sold only to export customers and feature many difference regarding the F-14.
It had a different radar and weapons systems (without the AIM-54) and also new engines.
Germany was one of its users; here we see a modernised aircraft of the Luftwaffe in the late 90's.

I'm actually not a huge fan of the F-14, but this is lovely.

apophenia · « **Reply #548 on:** April 12, 2012, 10:15:56 AM »

Well done JP. The single-seat conversion makes a striking difference :)

JP Vieira · « **Reply #549 on:** April 12, 2012, 10:22:40 PM »

Thank you all for your comments.
Althought not new idea for sure, the single-seat Tomcat is really interesting.
