We just posted the Schweitzer painting for Part 4. Tell me what you think.

A couple of shots of the SA-2S model that we just repaired and repainted. Too late for the article, but some of you may enjoy. I'll be posting a four-view at some point on our website. The wings actually swing out. Model is about two feet in length.

Beyond Kingfish article is here (for reference):

Awesome, thanks for posting the model pics. That's one of my favorite designs from the article. :)
 
two more. the head-on and backside shots have some depth-of-field issues. Will have to get those reshot.

SA-2S side view = Archipeppe's Avatar?... every day is a school day!

Try a strong telephoto lens at a great distance.

Like Andreas Von Retyi's "experimental aircraft sighting" from Tikaboo in 1995? ;D (I am of course joking!)

Are you quite sure about this? The fins (fin?) in his avatar look considerably taller to me...
 
"Try a strong telephoto lens at a great distance"

or orthogonal camera if any. Due to missing orthogonal camera in Vue I have to use Carrara, too.

You are of course quite right about the fin... maybe we should ask the man himself!

I had convinced myself that the nose and underslung Marquardt ramjet "twin pack" were defining features of the SA-2S configuration (and that these are also visable in his avatar picture)
 
My only complaint is that they don't give us more resolution. :(
 
As least for building 3-D models from them, there is no such thing as "too much resolution". ;D

I posted too soon, didn't have a chance to read the whole thread when I posted. The contributors to that site are quite skilled and produce some high quality fictional designs.
 
This site is the confusing Internet site. ;D

The illustrations you posted are completely legit and were originally posted on Lockheed Martin's official site.
 
Recently I can't watch Code One site by Internet explorer. :-[
Please show me how to watch the site.

...Wasn't this one of the "Kingfish" proposal designs that was batted about?

No, but it was an ancestor design.

...That's why I thought I'd seen it before. Came across it one time during my OXCART research back in the late 90's, albeit in a "napkin sketch" form. A "Fish" proposal, then?
The Fish proposal was an ancestor of the Kingfish; FISH stands for First Invisible Super Hustler because it was intended as a reconnaissance derivative of the Super Hustler. More info on the Fish can be found at http://www.aerospaceweb.org/question/planes/q0287.shtml.
 
Just curious, how was the combination intended to take off ? The Hustlers nose undercarriage is covered by the Fish vehicle, im wondering if any drawings show the intended setup?

The noses of both the Super Hustler and the FISH were designed to fold down and back 180 degrees while underneath the B-58. This would clear space for the B-58 nosegear for takeoff. The nose would fold into place after nose gear retraction.
