Boeing-Tupelov Tu-129BIS (Fiddler-K)

0 TennesseeDude2004  2.1 years ago

A heavily Modified Version of the Tu-128, codenamed: Fiddler. The Super Fiddler program, as it was known, was a joint Russian-American program that had two goals: 1. Foster good relations between the two nations; 2. improve the somewhat limited performance of the interceptor. Things such as improved flight stability, larger tail, better engines, heavier weapons load, and better cockpit fit were included. A vulcan cannon was also fitted. The huge but improved interceptor proved intriguing enough for a limited run of 60 USAF aircraft, half being interceptors, the others being recon aircraft and trainers 2=parachute, 3=gaurdians, and 4=interceptors. Vtol down for airbrakes This is just an alternate reality idea
