Boeing Scout
The atomic age is here, and with it came the norm of jets (even though they've existed since WWII and would have become the norm without atomic power existing anyway). Boeing-known for their transportation aircraft-decided to make a recon plane. This would be perfect since jets are too fast to be hit by flak. The plane is equipped with a small turret camera with a full 360 x & y angle that takes a mere two seconds to take a photograph with amazing quality and little brilliance or blur, also with good contrast among other things associated with good overall camera quality. It also has two experimental homing missiles and two 12.7mm machine guns. It does not serve well as a fighter or at high altitides, almost completely ruining the purpose of a military plane. It is also too dangerous to fly as a recreational civilian aicraft, but is useful for mail.
