Boeing's protoype for the US Army's super fighter program, this was probably the fastest plane in the program, using huge 5-bladed contra-rotating propellars this thing moved like a dart, though it's speed became one of it's greatest weakness, being incredible fast meant it put much more strain on both airframe and pilot and with no advanced G-suits to keep the pilot conscious the Model 357 often caused pilots to pass out or get nauseous during flight, this wouldn't have been the first pick for the US Army as it was physically discomforting to fly but it would have been one of the main choices
