Meplat Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 I've seen an OV10 fly, and worked with an OV10 pilot for a few years. The design is a filled well of unutilized potential. Sturgeon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meplat Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 You have my attention, elaborate? Other than their ridiculous manuverability? TPE 331. 1000 HP each. The design can deliver far more. Four bladed props, if not supercritical fanblades. If needed, replace with "something more".. Maybe PT6's. Scrap the quad 7,62's, and the cargo bay. Two M61'a and a large ammo bay. Full span spoilers, slats and flaps. From there it's armor and avionics. Belesarius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeeps_Guns_Tanks Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Plus it looks like a mini, two seat P-38, so it's cool by default. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturgeon Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 The P-61 is one of the coolest aircraft ever to fly (along with the P-38, OV-10, and XF-11... You get the picture). Anyone who disagrees is wrong. Belesarius, RobotMinisterofTrueKorea and Jeeps_Guns_Tanks 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
