    Well considering it seems we're facing a new three-way Cold War, they might have to bring it back, because I don't think P-3s and SH-60s can do the job alone.

      The Wattage S-3 was garbage. I think Freewing or FMS could make a fantastic flying and detailed S-3 with twin 70's or even 80's. I'd be all in for one of these. I've seen many "Hoovers" here in San Diego. In fact a guy I knew was the CO of VS-41 at NAS North Island. He told me one of the birds in his squadron fired a missile at Saddam Hussein's yacht and sunk it.

        Let's face it, it was a flying Swiss Army knife. It could act as a fighter using long-range air-to-air missiles, anti-ship, anti-sub, bomber, ELINT, tanker, and if you put Hellfires or TOWs on it, tankbuster. About the only thing I think it couldn't do was gunship, like the AC-130, and that's because it was too small.

                  If they were to do one it would probably be 1600mm, they could use the power system from the 1600mm Spitfire. If they came out with a Corsair & P-51 I'd be in heaven. I know those planes have been done to death but none are Flightline quality.

                    Flew gas and nitro powered Corsairs for yrs, it was and still is my favorite warbird to fly but I sold out several yrs ago and now it's time for another Corsair, I have plenty of 6S 5000 lipos so a big Corsair would do me well and hope it will be like super scale and have all the bells and whistles.

                        It would be great to see a tri-color Corsair in 2m Super Scale that uses a 6S. Big and beautiful would be awesome.

                          I would go for a big Corsair too.
                          I have the 1600 Spit and there are several warbirds that size they can build that will sell if Flightline does them.

                            Freewing 80 or 90mm EDF North American F-100 Super Saber with working airbrake, scale landing gear and gear doors with one of these paint schemes or another scheme.

                                  Fms planes are not the same quality as Freewing.
                                  I have both in my shop.
                                  Looking forward to Freewing/Flightline next releases.
                                  Hope there will be an A 26 Invader soon. The Tiger cat electrics will work.

                                    AN A26 would be really cool, but an OV10:ov10 Would be better!:):):):):):):)just ask WB or Boots!:Cool:

                                        I have to admit, I've caught the OV10 bug hard . I've started collecting reference material just in case.

                                        ​​​​​​Gotta get me some OV10, and the prescription is flightline

                                          I need to start a collection as well. Once i get an understanding of how 3dlabprint design their support structures im gonna attempt to follow their construction process to try to design a printable one. If i can and make it solid enough i will post the files here so others can take a crack at it and maybe suggest some revisions that would be needed... but thats my plan that will be starting next week.
