No, songbird is not LEGO. LEGO uses PS only for his works, and most of his works, if examined in detailed, is slightly twisted in 3D form to the left. (That is his old problem, everyone keep on bugging him about it on Chinese BBS)
…
Do You know anything new from LEGO ???? … the last picture I found from him/her (?) is nearly 1 1/2 years old ! š
Deino
I agree with You !!!
Just a question a add: Could it be that Sonbird = LEGO ?????
Deino
Maybe the mentioned missile is this one … the HN-3 posted in “edisonone’s” post called: “Army? Navy?? Airforce???? I call it technology!“

Deino š
Very interesting !!!
But why don’t You call this tread “stealthy cruise missile HN-3” …. :confused: …. and everybody knows what’s in this tread ??
Deino š
Let’s wait the Fana n°418 :p
Has anyone seen it yet … and wold be so kind to post ?????
Here in Germany it’s quite difficult to find it š”
Thanks, Deino š
MiG-29Sh-ground-attack project
:confused: never hearde about this version ! … does anyone have some more information and was it planned to have the same radical airframe changes like from the MiG-23 to the MiG-27 ???
Thanks in advance, Deino
Thanks a lot for sharing these very interesting pictures … and as in Your Convair 200-tread … I hope You have some more of them !!!
REgarding the pictures I have some comments and questions !
1. the LWF-design – maybe the Boeing cometitor – looks quite different to the design I know !
2. the one with the AIM-54: Could it be that these are different front section concepts for the later F-111 … the seem to represent single and twin-seater … tandem and side by side ???
3. Never seen the swing wing design before ???
Anyway … thanks a lot and hope to see some more !! š

Hi !!! Thanks a lot for these pictures !!
Interesting to see some more information of this plane !

Hmmm …. interesting JH-7 & JH-7A pictures …. but I have just one question regarding the radome-colours !
If I’m not wrong the newer production “standard” JH-7’s are getting the light-grey painted radomes … but why not the new production JH-7A’s ????
Deino :confused:
Indigenous development .… are “already put on the agenda.”
Hmmm … very interesting article … but the most interesting thing is this short sentence !!!
Does it mean that China still tries to develop an indigenous bomber ???

Hey i found some pics in my old Aerospace magazines. There is some mention of it being part of the LCA contest for India or something like that. The F-20 and Viggen were also involved earlier.
Thanks a lot for the picture of this twin seater version – seems to be a quite fine model kit !!!!
For my opinion it’s a great pitty that Russia canceled this project …. would have been a fine fighter even for the Russian AF – some kind of Russion Typhoon or Rafale – and for export too !
Deino š
Sorry to disagree !!! But I don’t think this is a refueling probe …. the position is much to forward and not behind the front canpoy … I think this is the “standard” instumentation boom !
Deino
Hey Deino,
Did those books you picked up have any detailed three view pics of the ACF? That was always one of my favorite Dassault designs as well.
Mine too …. and I deeply regret that there is no model kit of this plane š … regarding the plans … Sorry not … they do have a what-if-3-side-drawing of the proposed prototype … but just in the quality like the other pics I posted !
The best 3-side-drawing I have are these … an older twin seater and the final single seater version !

mirage 4000 was an evolution of super mirage.
Dassault had always this way of doing, there’re no really new fighter at dassault but rather slow evolutions.
That’s a very interesting point – for my opinion – no other manufactor of aircraft makes this like Dassault !
Starting with the Mirage III and it’s bigger cousin the Mirage IV tnhere waere plans for a Mirage III replacement developed and largely based on the M.III-airframe first to the F-series = F-1, F-2, F-3) with fixed wings and the G-series with VG-wings (G-2, G-4, G-8).
The Super Mirage = ACF was then an enlarged Mirage G-8 with a fixed wing wich led after it’s cancelation to the Super Mirage-Delta = Mirage 4000 and it’s smaller precedessor – the Mirage 2000 !!!
Just fine !
mirage 4000 was already built before the super mirage was droped.
:confused: Are You sure …. I think that cold not be !!! The Mirage Super Mirage = ACF-programe was canceled late in 1975 and the Mirage 4000 was built during 1978 – 1979 !!!

… and some “What-if” serial versions !!!
