- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

I quite like that. I have a 1/72 Dakota and Chinook too...

Maybe need to find some (possibly 1/48) A-10 nacelles to use as fan cooled radial engine pods.

I think reshaping the rear fuselage would be the most tricky part...

Flyer, I'd start with a nice thick slab of plastic sheet and round the edges off - it's closer to a flat plate on the rear of the Chinook than anything more contoured.
FWIW

True, I've added all of this into my idea's note's. If the kit's survive without being sold anytime soon ( not for sale yet, but they may be soon) I may get to doing something with it. :rolleyes:

Yes, but in a good way.  ;)

That landing gear looks like it could handle small to medium size craters so, i'd say it has rough field take off/landing capability... ;D

I really like the second Stuka he came up with with the 109G engine ..it looks quite different with retractable landing gear...might have to hunt down a cheap Gustav  ;)
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Looks more like the front end of a Fw-190 D-9 to me.

And I could be wrong but just looking at the small side profile (also on my phone ;) ) it looks like he has used a F4U Corsair wing also.
