      See? I was telling you the same thing on your page... I remember seeing this footage many times over from the gun cams of the F-105... This same bomb was also carried by the 100, 104 and F-4..... so who knows whats happening... I would really love a big detailed F-105 though!! Been wanting one for the longest!! If its a Skyraider... crickets for me.....

                      ?????? Those models already exist and they aren't that old. Why would they do another?

                            As a newcomer to this forum you most likely missed when Alpha (Head Honcho Guy of FL/FW new products for Motion) just recently explained that EDF's of that size are not part of the market focus niche for them.

                                • My guess would be the 105, after seeing the video. No preorder for me if it is a 105, unless of course it's a big 90mm and scaled out, I will consider it then, now a 80mm/90mm F-4, another story, will be hitting the preorder button as fast as I can..........:)

                                  • i am hopeing for a 80mm f4 it seems more in line with past freewing jets..only problem is I just paid for the a4,,where will I get cash for a f4? lol if it turns out to be a f105 ill pass..in most polls the 105 doesent even show up

                                    • It could always be a baby A-4 Skyhawk with a 64mm fan. Mike Machat recently did a large A-4 Skyhawk wall mural for the Santa Monica Museum of Flying. The A-4 is a Douglas/McDonnell Douglas product. Carried a bunch of bombs, too. Would make a nice last minute stocking stuffer at $100.

                                      • I also think it could very well be a 90mm F-105 Thunderchief. The Thud could drop that many munitions as depicted in the video. Having an F-105 model would actually be a better option for those that prefer single 80/90mm setups that might shy away from a big Super Scale F-4 Phantom with twin 80mm when it comes out.

                                        This F105 is carrying a full bomb load of sixteen 750 lb (340 kg) bombs on its five hardpoints.
