McDonnell-Douglas Advanced Design Proposals - Name That Design Game

[overscan (PaulMM)]

Thanks to the ever-vigilant Mark Nankivil, we have a number of McDonnell-Douglas Advanced Design sketches to identify. I think I can figure out a few, but I thought it might be fun to let everyone have a go at this game. I'll post one design per post, so we can move them to the correct topics once identified.

A couple are pretty obvious, but mostly not I think.

It's a preliminary sketch for SPF' previous main page title picture, not a real aircraft

Fantastic post, thanks both to you and Mark Nankivil for sharing!

Way too many to identify in just one go, but the ones that ring a bell are:
2 - Mach 12 hypersonic concept? (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/th...rojects-from-the-60s-and-70s.2867/#post-31457)

13 - A-4...twin engine?
14 - VLF ancestor from figure 3-6? (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/mcdonnell-douglas-model-265-afti-project.6933/#post-59938)

19 - Model 265 (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/mcdonnell-douglas-model-265-afti-project.6933/)

23 - Northrop P530 (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/th...-p-610-yf-17-design-evolution.448/#post-21421)
24 - Possible Model 225 derivative/ADLI proposal? (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/th...lternatives-to-the-f-14.229/page-2#post-60190)
25 - Possible ADLI proposal?
26 - Possible ADLI proposal?
27 - ADM-20 Quail
28 - Orient Express (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/mcdonnell-douglas-orient-express.4000/)
29 - VLF variant from pic 2? (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/mcdonnell-douglas-model-265-afti-project.6933/#post-60158)

32 - Possible single engine VSTOL/Model 262 iteration (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/mcdonnell-model-262-vstol-fighter.2134/#post-60186)
33 - Possible ADLI proposal?
34 - GIUK Gap Interceptor Mach 6 proposal (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/giuk-gap-hypersonic-interceptor-aircraft.6422/#post-53388)
35 - GIUK Gap Interceptor Mach 4.5 proposal (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/giuk-gap-hypersonic-interceptor-aircraft.6422/#post-54135)

For the possible ADLI proposals, I know I've seen those engine on Vought projects for the Navy...

Edit: the ones I supposed to be ADLI proposals have turboramjet engines (https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/th...h-3-4-5-navy-fighter-not-vfx.1899/#post-21605)

sensory overload for me. Will have to take a break, take a bourbon and try again.

@overscan (PaulMM) - you should make a STEM coloring book for neophyte aerospace engineers! Proceeds to the museum.
