[markmarples]

not sure if ive posted this in the correct place so sorry if not and please move it to the relevent section

anyway, on the continuing theme of Atlantis.....

The tip of the Spear!

after the Argentenian's probed Atlantian airspace ( http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php/topic,33968.0.html ) in which both the invaders were destroyed Atlases government decided enough was enough and authorised the military to take what ever action it wanted to take revenge for its lost pilot. the top brass decided to remove the argentenian air threat by removing its runways! with the uprafe air defence from the SA-20 it was now time for the bombers...

the 3rd tactial Spear group was selected for the task, this unit comprise or a specialist 'Stealth' unit that could fly below 'NAVAL' radar and using stealth aircraft only coming to any height to refule from Atlantis's tanker fleet

the aircraft was of course the SB (Strike Bombard) 35!! commonly known as the SPEAR!


below shows the development or one of those aircraft

In the first couple of pictures, it almost looks like the plane came apart and hit the ground with large pieces intact and the pilot, who bailed out was just sitting on the fuselage calmly waiting for the response crews to show up.
