F-209A Swallow

119k DestinyAviation  9.0 years ago

The F-209A (XF-209) Swallow was designed to improve upon the F-208 Arrow series. The Swallow features two engines in an under the wing configuration and has more internal support than the Arrow. Because of it having two engines, the Swallow has a top speed of around 560 miles per hour. It retains much of the design styles from the Arrow and therefore looks slightly similar. FYI, If you take off the side panels you can see the struts inside. Enjoy!

    That's awesome I love the design! It's even cooler that you designed it from the ground up! The struts are cool!

    @Cjredwards, F-029 is a ship in the U.S. (I believe) Navy. No planes!

    @Cjredwards, thanks for the question. This plane is of my own design, although there might be a plane with this name out there.

    Is this your own design or was this a real plane? It looks awesome!
