The F-16s licence-built by North American were looking like Sabre:

I received from Aerospace Projects Review a picture of Hughes art that inspired me:

I received from Aerospace Projects Review a picture of Hughes art that inspired me:

Ahem, correction: the rear of the jet should not be too low when there is no more ventral air intake. Corrected:

F-16s with a radar nose of Short Sturgeon (at different scale) may have been useful but they were rather ugly:

The Fokker-Republic D-24 Alliance may have been a bad failure (commercially) but it is a good inspiration for my F-16 big family:

Makes me think of the F-107 that flew but never caught on. F-16 with the intake on top? Makes me think.......

Without high wing, I was inspired by the YF-107 a long time ago:

Oh yeah, that's it!

And I have been inspired by a piece of art on ArtStation web site:

Correction, with more flat back:

I have been inspired by a weird "medieval" object looking like an aircraft:

Maybe this is the F-16 of the future, who knows?
Of course I know for my own dreams but for the Real World I am not sure...

Even with  a canard foreplane, stealthy properties may be preserved, just needing to chose the right angles:

The canard foreplane may even be integrated into the wing:
