More pics from the 7/29/05 movie. Supposedly a stealth Mach 4+
multirole a/c with Mach 3.5 Supercruise and 4000nm range. AI pilot
goes crazy starts wasting "friendlies"... two other stealth human
pilots sent in to destroy the a/c.
Looks ok but Firefox ruled back in 1983! I still have my press kit
from that one and no comparison- the MiG looks better IMO.
Holy crap, it DOES look like the prop guys tried to ape the
"Switchblade"! They've got photos that show both the wings in the
stowed-forward high-speed position and in the extended-for-launch
position.
And geez oh pete, I wonder how hard the nose-down force is on those
downward-pitched chines? Especially at Mach 4...
I got three words for you. STRAIGHT TO VIDEO.
