Is it a bird? Is it a super bird?

[Moafuleum]

Bird is the word and a piston??

XF-85 looks good to me... has to be a pretty wild ride. I would imagine that you sit on the engine itself, with your legs at its sides. Rodeo style! :D That would be epic...

[Kang]

I'd love that Skyraider, really.

Talking about a wild ride on an engine, that would be a Gee Bee, plus it looks totally bad ass ;)

 

[Oesau]

So a AC-47 Gooney Bird gunship then?

[floarm]

 

Bird Dog.....

[floarm]

 

 

...or something, that we all need: Agriculture Jet Biplane

[floarm]

 

Or a big piston fire bird!

AC-119

Since i had nothing better to do: I can dicern 2 sets of parralel white lines in the thicker white line, indicatating II II or 4 for that matter. Can anyone speculate further on that in the combination with Super, Bird and the render photo we have been teased with?

 

I'd almost say it would indicate a tricycle landing gear with dual rear wheels, on a runway, indicating a heavy bomber of sorts. Although that is very much speculative :music_whistling:

 

 

tricycle landing gear with dual rear wheel...?

 

Supermarine Attacker!

 

[boedha68]

 

And the winner is........... Sukhoi 47!!!! :D:D:D

You know everyone would buy that ridiculous oddity.

Is it a bird or is it a helo? Mi-24?

[Silver_Dragon]

Is it a bird or is it a helo? Mi-24?

 

Mi-24P in progress by BSK (no dates)

Darn, from the black and white picture I thought I read the numbers 24 and the cross on the right indicated a helo...

[TheKrayTwin]

[zaelu]

it could be a AH-1 Cobra though...

[Winterz]

What about a big plane such as a C-130 or C-160?

[trindade]

It's obvious, it's a Victor! :pilotfly:

[DZShizzam]

They did call the F2G-1/2 the "Super Corsair" and M3 was working on a Corsair... but I don't know how that would be a surprise.

 

On the off chance it's not a piston, which doesn't seem likely... the "Super Tweet"?

 

 

I forget what they were called, but a new third party suggested they were creating a Dragonfly already, for what that is worth.

 

I don't think they had official third party recognition from ED yet though.

[Eldur]

I would even dare to say that FIAT multipla starts to look like a piece of art once you had seen this plane.

 

Nothing will ever be able to beat that abomination in uglyness

[Silver_Dragon]

it could be a AH-1 Cobra though...

 

Sorry, but AH-1 planned by BSK....

[wavn]

Suddenly I understood: it's a cat........ no, it's a supercat (also called HELLCAT);

because she is a carrier aircraft, she will be accompanied by a nice carrier.

 

Recently read "on and off the flight deck" of Henry 'Hank' Adlam: a very nice read for everyone who likes the stories of the carrier flying in WW2 .

[ebabil]

this thread has turned into "ugly planes contest" :D

These hints are trash.
