New machine design from user Cutangus.



Just need to find the right Drop Tank  :thumbsup:

I would wonder if an F-84 fuselage wasn't a good start point,


You could start with the front end off a Wyvern

Yes! thats even better, since you have your props in hand then.

Here is a painting done by a Deviant Art member named Waldemar Kazak. His DA userid is Waldemar-Kazak if you would like to view his gallery. He has some unique works and among them, some concept aircraft, ships and mechanicals. Lots of comic items, a good influence of Steampunk and some really classic illustration and paint styles.

I extended an invite to join us here but he is very busy and cannot right now. Here is a sample of his works, this titled "Crazy Russian Pilots"

Yeah, it's so unusual that we ALMOST ended up believing you were the internet's sole provider of flying wing designs!! LOL

venom800tt's gallery is truly awesome and I encourage anyone who hasn't seen his work to pay him a visit.

bagera3005's drawing of Rockwell's Saber Bat
(or Saberbat, Sabre Bat, Sabrebat)

I don't think calling it X-31 is correct, though, and some of the shapes and proportions don't quite match the few photos I've seen.



A mock up existed:



Edit:
Oh, there was a thread on the Sabre-Bat, with some photos and a drawing:

Yes indeed. Note the vector thrust nozzles too. Makes me wonder if the Pres. can shake up the press reporters traveling with him by phoning the cockpit and requesting a few tail-slides and cobra maneuvers? ;D

It does seem to have an awful lot of flying surfaces. What are the 'wings' in the middle supposed to do?
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

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

There to Look terrific!  ;)
 
I doubt if they have variable sweep. The smaller canards by the entry door are the ride control dampers.

Could they be a way to break up sonic booms? I have only read a little bit about next generation SST noise control.

Interesting ship and an interesting back story.  I suspect an invitation would be in order, unless its yours?
