Iraq is chewing up development funds. The longer Iraq goes on the more you’re going to see this kind of stuff.
You can also try the tomcat association, but it might be hard to build a better site.
Of course, it’s pretty biased towards the F-14 and doesn’t seem to be a navy site.

Don’t know how realistic this one is, but some have suggested a Hafnium powered quatum neucleonic reactor powered aircraft.

Distiller is right. WW2 Germany did make fuel from coal.
I believe that it’s also possible to extract it from tar sands. It is of course more expensive.
Is methane a possibility?
How many Rafale can the CdG carry? The naval Rafale’s wings don’t fold do they.
Didn’t some enterprising people once sell pieces of the Berlin wall?
Would anyone here pay to own a piece of history? Interesting conversation piece for your desk or coffee table?
The Vulcan was one of the few to actually see combat, wasn’t it?
Is the actually J-11 any better than a Flanker or other aircraft?
What would it be priced at? How reliable is it? Who would support it?
Military aircraft have extremely long lifespans now days. You see B-52s, Mig-21s, F-4s, A-4s, etc. in service decades after their introduction. Is China going back that aircraft for the next 20 – 30+ years? Could they do so even if they wanted to?
I’d like to see a F7F Tigercat and a DH Sea Hornet built, so I can see how they match up.
On the jet side, I’ve always wanted to see how an updated Vought F7U Cutlass made out of composites, decent engines, etc. would turn out.
Looks like an artist concept to me too.
An-72s have rocket launchers? Aren’t they transports?
The US Alaska class battlecruisers. Built during WW2 when their role had been taken over by the carriers.

I don’t think it will happen. With Pakistan and India starting to talk, it’s unlikely that the US would want to introduce new military equipment that might upset the Indians.
I suppose that the US might sell F-16s as some kind of incentive to some kind of peace deal.
That seems to say a lot about how much the Pakistani Air Force values the TF-17.
I’d like to see a de havilland Hornet anywhere
The estimated value for the sight was 2 million yen or about $18,000 US at the current exchange rate.
I have no idea if that’s a realistic estimate or not.
