I asked a guy who worked at Rockwell around that time. He says:



1. Drawing labeled " Attack": no data, looks like a planform study only
2. Bomber: I saw a few more pictures of this aircraft, but not much in the way of detail.
3. Attack: Looks like a Raymer design, with iso by Jim Costopolus (1980'S)
4. Hypersonic: Looks VERY much like a Raymer drawing from 1980's (I know his style!).
5. MRF: This looks like one of the planform studies for MRF/JSF. I never saw any more detail.
6. JPATS: Boeing patent trainer
7. SOF: I have seen this drawing around. It is a stealthy VTOL design. I can probably find out who did it!
8. ATF: This is the Raymer ATF

I'm pretty sure the CAS design is Rockwell - I think its in Aircraft 2000 by Bill Sweetman (can't find my copy...) I would guess they are all Rockwell designs, they used data to hand.

Found the picture. Its similar, but not the same. The text just says its a Navy concept.
