hey.. been busy but had a thought about the "tin pot dictator" version..built on historic F-11 airframes.If Grumman kept the avionics in the F-5E/F-8U/A-4E range that leaves enough room in the nose for a pair of cannon so you could use that big belly tank. Use a J-52 408 as the power plant to get the better SFC without dropping the power... and you have like an early '70s AMX.Edit: The dorsal AIM-9's give everyone acid stomach, they probably would work but that null drag zone they sit in if you look at it gives you a nice bit of room for a spine of avionics or fuel of about that size that could be pretty useful. 10k pounds of fuel would give it some decent legs
