Amazing. All the goofy stuff that's been built over the years makes one think how it ever flew in the first place. This one...>>24659...looks a tad familiar.

>>24648 "Based on the P-51 Mustang, the F-82 was originally designed as a long-range escort fighter in World War II; however, the war ended well before the first production units were operational, so its postwar role changed to that of night-fighting. Radar-equipped F-82s were used extensively by the Air Defense Command as replacements for the Northrop P-61 Black Widow night fighter."

Some of these crazy planes might explain a lot of the so called UFO's people say they've seen.

>>24641 There's an Air Force base south of Houston, Ellington Field, that had the B-35 Flying Wing stationed there during the Korean War. I remember watching them fly over Houston all the time. I think the Air Force actually used them in combat overseas.

>>24640 Surely that's an F82 all weather interceptor, it's got the radar mounted under the center wing.
