Mig-23, Mig-27? What else?

 

Neither for sure. ED mentioned on RU side that those modules won't be "given up" to 3rd parties abuse.

I would love to fly Gee Bee! I remember as a kid, each time I saw the model kit of I-16 rata my grandfather assembled, I had a good laugh because of the proportions and kept wondering if it could fly at all. But then, I was introduced to Gee Bee (or bee-gees as I called it) and witnessing it alone blew my socks off for good! :D

 

That reminds me of my first virtual air races dealwithit.png

C'mon guys, think outside the box ! helpsmilie.gif

And since noone mentioned it already, I'll just throw the Slepcev Storch into the bowl. It's a bird. And it has a bird cage. And it's Serbian. And it can fly Super slow. But I doubt it will be the one nevertheless. Just wanted to throw in something rdlaugh.png

 

Mig-23, Mig-27? What else?

 

Definately need them. Both. Back then, when M3 and HB still were Leatherneck Studios Nick said they'd do one, but it wouldn't be their next project. Since one part of the former team already released the Viggen and are relatively close to giving us the Tomcat, it could be the Flogger fsgrin.png

Why I didn't think about it ealier. It's obvious, the 3'rd hint is not a hint but an early 3D model of:

By playing with the brightness and contrast, I came up with this image.

Looks to be the nose of A P-38, as you can see the guns protruding from the nose.. but other geometry in the image doesn't quite line up.

 

EDIT:

 

I think the "figure" or whatever you want to call it on the right appears to be a wing with 3 underslung HVAR rockets.

It is 99% a P-38.

 

Picture shows nose, part of the cockpit, right prop blade and right wing. left engine is in the background. The "nose doors" for rearming are open/not mounted so that the guns and ammunition supply can be seen:

That was my thought as well. About 12 months ago there was a lot of discussion and speculation about it.

 

However, I've been wrong before and the hype for whatever they announce is real.
