Experimental Fighters from the '60s...

XF-108

XF-109

XF-103

XF-107

A blogger named SteelJawScribe has me on a historical kick when it comes to aircraft.  He's been doing a series on the Centennial of Naval Aviation which got me looking a bit more at the history of aviation in general. A little light Googling brought me not only these futuristic (even today) examples but many others that date even earlier.

Fascinating stuff...At least in my opinion.  More to come.

    Anybody who likes this kind of stuff would be doing themselves a HUGE favor by heading over to the Secret Projects forum.

    One you can add is the F8U-3 Crusader III. That would have been a great fighter...
