1960 Boeing Wind Tunnel Model - 712, 721?

[hesham]

Looking for an old AWST article to scan, I found another photocopy I took some times ago in which are depicted, w/o additional information, a couple of models of what seem a single Boeing-Wichita design. One is a tunnel model, the other one is a 1:10 model used for live drop tests. Could be: 1) a light-bomber/fighter-bomber/strike aircraft, either land or ship-based; b) a VTOL tactical aircraft (I seem to divine vertical jet inlets in the central fuselage. Anyone has some more clues ? Date is circa 1960 (could be little earlier).
Thanx in advance

And... randomly, in Aviation Week from 1960, a model with resemblance to the Boeing 712 configuration. Wing seems identical but intakes are further forward.

So Hesham beat me to it, my copy is much nicer though. It looks closer to the 712 than the 721 bomber design, my hunch is its a later fighter iteration.
