Description An aircraft profile I'm working on of a Close Air Support (CAS) design mentioned and depicted in "Living in the Future". Dr. Raymer referred to it as a "Low Cost Tactical Fighter".

This concept is (c)/TM Rockwell/Boeing.

Hmm...fascinating design. Is that a missile on it's back or conformal fuel tank?

It's a bomb. It would have been designed to pop up off of the aircraft and glide to its target.

Ahh glide bombs. Interesting. I have to get that book one day. It seems it's got a lot of cool designs in it.
