Here, Gondor stated "I wish someone sold X-4's as accessories in 1/72 and 1/48 scales as I do not want to buy kits just to steal missiles from them."

Well maybe I can help.  See http://www.capehobby.com/Aircraft_Resin_Models_CHG.html

Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

How was it meant to land?

Cats are not real. 
They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

Backwards? Like an XFY-1 Pogo perhaps?

Difficult but not impossible. Mind you with the throttle response of early jet engines it could have been a REAL pig!

Thats a very nice diorama.  Very spectacular takeoff (or landing).   How did you do the clouds of smoke?
