This one is inspired by one of the aircraft in the Japanese anime Supersylph Yukikaze. The particular aircraft is called FA-2 Fand II (http://www.gearsonline.net/series/yukikaze/fand2/) in the series. The model used for the modification is a Hasegawa 1/72 F-16C, which can be acquired relatively cheap and with good shape despite its age. It turns out not too bad ;D

This is looking great, even though I have doubts concerning overall balance and center of lift from the wings?

Yup, it's a tad tail heavy due to the material used for the wing, hence the central fuel tank to counter balance it.
Intriguing looking beast :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
very good looking, you can see where it evolved from , but the final effect is smashing :thumbsup:
Well done :thumbsup:
Wicked!
:thumbsup:
Firefox, your great model inspired me a drawing of variable geometry forward swept wing, thanks! ;D
