Republic XF-12 Rainbow

195 CPTWilson  2.5 years ago

The Republic XF-12 Rainbow was an American four engined, all metal prototype reconnaissance aircrat designed by Republic Aviation Company in the late 1940's. I have taken some liberties mainly being that I have borrowed the basic airframe from the predecessor to this post, and the fact thst the cockpit is far from accurate but I personally felt that the basic design I have gone for fits the shape of the glass nose cockpit very well.
