Oh I do like that

Odd that the B-29 and the XB-70 have almost exactly the same fuselage diameter.

It looks superb.

sometime ago, i was intrigued by McColm's statement :

Suprisingly the  Matchbox Hunter T7 cockpit fits on the front of the Heller Mirage IVP,  I just need to find the suitable landing gear.

This mix sounds particularly interesting...

Why not transfer the IVP gear across?

The IVP was a 'spares or repair ' with the gear up ,cockpit glazing missing and circular radar missing on Ebay as a job lot.

so I found myself a Heller Mirage IVP, which is in 1/48
(hence not fitting the Matchbox 1/72 Hunter, but that will be another story)
and in the same times got a cheap old 1/72 Revell Lancaster

and they surprisingly fit :

Wow! It looks like a "half-supersonic" Lancaster!

The other way round would be a good stablemate for the Valkyre with B-36 nose.

[McColm]

Looks like a Tigercat from Northrop.

Dassault's test bed for the Mirage IV's dual cockpit and AAR probe. 

With Arme de l'Air camo and markings you could put that on the Mirage SIG stand at Telford and fool the lot of them!

and the reciprocal, showing the neat fit even better

this is Super Cool the Look Almost makes me Imagine a little Word Balloon saying"At an Airfield Somewhere in the Eastern Alliance,a Group watches as the Newest Strike Aircraft Rolls out!" Keep up the Superb Work Dan

[steelpillow]

Aha! That's the one!

The only question now is, are these two stablemates or deadly enemies?
