I used to nurse the fond belief that only the B52G and H versions carried Hound Dog missiles and that they were only loaded in the "silver era".
Thanks to the Internet it turned out that the Dog served well into the 70s and so was carried by SIOP scheme B52s.
An example is shown here...

The other day I was looking at some space proposals from the past and I stumbled upon this beautiful SSTO. I have only been able to find one source that gave some details about it and I'm very much hoping that you guys can help get more details/drawings on this proposal.

I found this quote in another topic: "What about the disgraceful O-47? The inelegant Sabreliner?" Perhaps as a answer to the second part of that question I will present the following image and also ask if this is the NA-465, "Sabreliner 65", that hesham mentioned more than seven years ago...

Hey everyone,
Talos (from whatifmodelers), a few others and I are working on a series VFX profile drawings for each of the contenders involved. Attached are WIPs for the NAR and MDC designs for your viewing pleasure.

Does anyone have specifications of the North American Rockwell/General Dynamics Phase B Shuttle (1970)? Any additional concept art and drawings would be appreciated as well.

Quite a little known fact that in order to save money and meantime to demonstrate its proposal to Air Force Source Selection Board members, NAR has built full-scale B-1A '2D Mockup' (with a significant use of Kodak equipment).
Mock-up was completed just in 3 days.
