Hey ... very nice ! CAn You tell anything about release date, price and especially its dimensions I don't know more about that "type" other than being slightly smaller than the B-2 ... so in 1/144 this would be ? ???
Thanks for posting, Deino

Purely conjectural, on the part of the production designers and modelmakers for "Broken Arrow." And while the design has some aspects that I'd take issue with, it actually seems *reasonably* good for a transonic B-2-descendant. Certainly not a supercruiser though.

Are those B-2/B-3 drawings really in the same scale? The cockpit of the B-3 looks larger although it seems the same shape. My sense of the aircraft in the movie was that it was substantially smaller than a B-3.
However, the drawings and Scott's model layout help. I have some odd-scale B-2 around somewhere I could probably hack up into a B-3 in 1/72. Although then, what will I use for the 1/72 Northrop ATA? :'(

Roughly. The available information on the dimensions and scale of the model built for the movie conflicts. Look at the human figure in the B-3 drawing to help give soem scale... it's not a small plane. And as for the cockpit being big on the B-3... take a look at it as shown in the movie. It is, like too many Hollywood movies, quite open and spacious.

AARGH Per the comparison drawings, the B-3 is roughly 158' wingspan and 93' length. Per the Fox website, the 1/6 scale studio model is 14' wingspan and 18' length, making an 84' wingspan and 108' length. This corresponds closer to Gross's drawings.
I gotta get the movie to figure this out. I tried downloading the clips from the Fox site but are postage stamp size.

Does anyone know the approximate dimensions of the hypothetical B-3 "Stealth Bomber" from the film "Broken Arrow?" A resin kit was recently advertised on the "Fantastic Plastic" website, but without anything to scale the model.
