Can anyone tell me what these aircraft are? This first image says "Courtesy Jim Reid" who was a real guy in aviation, but the wing arrangement makes no sense, I have no idea what those markings are supposed to be nor the crest (although it looks presidential)- but the MG turrets look authentic.
This one looks like a Heinkel He-280, modified for artistic license.
This is maybe a modified Fw-189, kitbashed to hold a turbofan?
I have no idea wtf this is.
YF-15?
>a 14 year old fake>vidya shit>modelsYou know you can search by image right? You've been able to do this for a long time.
>>65169468OP looks like someone fucked around in photoshop and swapped the wings and horizontal stabilizer surfaces, like you said the wing arrangement makes no logical sense.>>65169477That looks like something out of Macross.
>>65169468>op picI hate you.
>>65169468Its from the Barnes Wallis does cocaine series.
>>65169499>Its from the Barnes Wallis does cocaine series.I'll put that in the notes.
>>65169486>Visual search>pictures of half naked women and dogs>nothing even remotely aircraft>Ask Copilot>Tells me everything is a Hawkeye or a B17Fuck you.
>>65169468reminds me that animation with the automated bombers and fighters still flying around long after mankind being extinct>>65169477Thats the FALKEN from Ace Combat
>>65169520>reminds me that animation with the automated bombers and fighters still flying around long after mankind being extinctI won't know it, but now that you mention, you've reminded me of another movie>Thats the FALKEN from Ace CombatOh shit that makes sense. All my friends played those but I never got to it
>>65169514>Using AIThere is your problem. Fucking waste of water over this dumb shit.
>>65169530Visual search uses data centers too, and that was your guidance.
Either this is low quality engagement bait, or whatever you're using to reverse image search sucks ass.>>65169471Me 262 HG-III proposal>>65169474Blohm & Voss P 196>>65169478Grumman XEF-142 AWACS concept
>>65169537>Either this is low quality engagement baitI really don't understand what the problem is. People are referencing the OP pic too like it's a problem but yeah, I get it now, it's photoshopped. >Me 262 HG-III proposalI disagree on account of the cockpit being too far back. >Blohm & Voss P 196Great find!!! I never would have known that. The Wikipedia section on it is super sparse. >Grumman XEF-142 AWACS conceptI probably should have guesses this one. Those wings look like F14 wings.
Just imagine if the thin line between genius and madness was picked up and used as a skipping rope more often. I really want to see a timeline where all the crazy shit got not only built but deployed.
>>65169595You and I are on the same page.
>>65169579>cockpit too far backTell that to the artist.
>>65169520>>65169525https://youtu.be/pyMNIFZTQkg?si
>>65169621R-right!
>>65169624Eerie. It's like if a neutron bomb war killed the organics. I like the reverse of those scenarios where EMPs take out the machines and people have to claw back civilization. That scenario is so dark and somehow worse though. Not only are there fewer people (or none?), but the machines are still trying to destroy what's left.
>>65169468Its a photoshop and not real>>65169514it literally took me less than 5 minutes to figure out that it was fake by reverse image search
>>65169788I've never understood why some people seem to have a problem with reverse image searching. I assume OP is just lying though and wanted to make a thread about it and played ignorance to get other people to bump it.
>>65169468some kind of weird Dodge stratos?
>>65169468Closest I can find is a 2007 forum post. Jokingly called "Rutan B-17X" on ww2aircraftIt's not that hard to reverse imgsearch you dumb nigger
>>65169774i remember this, was a anime or game?
>>65169468It's a FAMA-5 (Federatione Aeronautique Machinekeizen Aniki - 5).
>>65169624looks like something masamune shirow did.. well that's the extent of my anime knowledge
>>65170753Now that's interesting
>>65169624fucking neat
>>65169637What makes it worse for me is that it's like a fucked up Hachiko story where the machines, endless in their loyalty, continue to carry out the orders of their long dead masters
>>65169624Interesting, I'm surprised I hadn't seen that before. There's a sequel too.Seems like it could be a cool game setting. I'm thinking the AI would see any attempt at rebuilding as enemy activity and target it, and the game would be about getting to the HQ and shutting the system down.
>>65169624Ooh that's pretty metal. >>65170517It's Macross or Robotech.
>>65169468It almost looks like a mock up test-bed for the Vickers Victory class bomber design Barnes Wallis came up with - but I don't think that program ever got to the point of real world testing/prototypes. >>65170753>TFW you're so obsessed with clear visibility for carrier landings that you don't care about anything else.
>>65169468
>>65172069>obsessed with clear visibilityI can see your mom from here.
>>65172199Shouldn't you be focusing on controlling a notoriously unstable aircraft rather than checking out the local landmarks?
>>65172227Cool planes are unstable, stable planes are for boring people.
>>65172476>stable planes are for boring peoplenot always
