Ok my turn to knit pick, I would have changed the engine intake to make it stealthy - maybe hexagonally shaped. And considering that this plane is supposed to be the future I would have gone with the four bomb clips of Small Diameter Bombs (SDB) instead of LGBs.
Has anyone come out with the SDB and the 4 X carrier in any scale besides 1/1?  

As for nit picking, all I can say is never send a yard dart to do the job of a WARTHOG!  

Not impressed with the canards up front but the rest of it looks pretty impressive, big bombs and all...

Yes exactly like that!!!  B)

The SDB has yet to enter service so no one has yet to make it in any scale for us modelers.

I bet because of the price of the F-22 and F-35 the ANG and AF Reserve will end up soldiering on with the F-16, F-16s that will probably end up looking like this.

To add on what bro. Nils has said, the SDBs will be deployed to the Gulf w/a Beagle unit in Oct.

Bids are already out for the SDBII

Plus ya have to wonder what the effect of the canards would be on the air flow to the intake, especially combined with hanging those big pods on the side of the intake. Not too sure that would work from a structural standpoint.

Sure! Less anhedral would be better... nice model, armed to the teeth!!

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Well, I would have....aw, stuff it----this baby's way better than anything I've ever finished and I know it.

Damn, that is a fine-looking model; one that I'd definitely be proud to have on my shelf.
