From my back catalogue, fits nicely in the under 10,000 weight limit and is a fair representation of this U.S. Homeland defender. The 'six' carried it's weapons internally and was designed to climb high and fast to intercept strategic nuclear bombers before shooting them out of the sky with either conventional or tactical nuclear weapons and returning home for beer and medals. Retired in the 1980's the 'six' was the last custom built interceptor in the USAAF inventory.

    Dang I hope somebody tries to top this cuz its a very well made design such as climbing to 85,000 ft in under a minute going at a 60° angle and gaining speed to reach a cruise of about 1,500... geez lol @karlosdarkness

    @JacobHardy64 @KingDeadshot thanks guys, felt a bit of cop out just reposting something I previously posted but I guess if it help it gain exposure then it's not so terrible.
