SR-71 Draken Hybrid Idea

[Cobra]

Hey Guys, Tell me what You think of this:What If someone went ' Gerry Anderson' and Combined the Wings of a Draken with the Body of an SR-71?? think it would Work as a 'Super Fighter','Strike Fighter',or as a 'High Altitude Interceptor'?? what say You? the Idea just hit me as i was getting out of the Shower. i also wondered if Such a Thing had been Tried before. Stay Cool & Thanks for looking. Dan

It would have to be a 1/48 Draken and a 1/72 SR-71. The Draken is MUCH smaller. Cool idea though. Where to put the engines though?

I've got a small and crappy kit of the SR-71, which you could probably use the other way, i.e. to put wing-mounted engines on the Draken. As to why you would, well you could call them ramjets and claim the idea was to give the Draken a Lightning-style climb-rate and ceiling to intercept a new Soviet spyplane......

A big cranked delta on the Blackbird would be an interesting look for sure, and the weird shaped wings from the '71 would be interesting on a Draken too.
