Gary F Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Dave, one last Flying Tiger F-2 with the spine in standard 3 tone Viper scheme with GBU-22s, AIM-120s, and Sniper pod good luck with your project Gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aggressor Supporter Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 (edited) :blink: Gary those look just awesome, and I'm not even a fan of spines! Edited January 30, 2008 by Raptor Supporter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jenshb Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I agree - that looks very interesting... I've always thought that the F-16 is a natural for a sharkmouth, but few units seem to take advantage. If the USAF - or even Lockheed Martin were to take the F-2 design, they'd probably modify it with a better radar, and possibly Block 60 electronics and systems and redesignate it as some F-16 variant. F-16J perhaps? Jens Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sv51macross Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Although definitely a better engine to go with the extra airframe it has to lug around! Simply awesome man, great ideas! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MiG31 Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Don't forget that there's already an F-2 listed in the DoD's post-1962 fighter series. I'd agree that this would be redesignated as some F-16 variant. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GreyGhost Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Well, I'd think an USAF F-2/F-16G would have the latest AESA radar developed by Raytheon to fit into the F-16,F/A-18A-D and early Lot Super Hornets ... Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gary F Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Dave, Any pics of your project? regards, Gary F Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sv51macross Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 There's a F-16G in the critiques section. Y'know, with a more powerful engine, the F-2 airframe could become a very competent carrier jet, just needs those fowler-flap-thingies and a wingfold. Although, finding space for a twinwheel nose LG would require one hell of adoor bulge or some very creative intake trunking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
