What about the XR-V from Marooned?

Super weird. The decals come off. Would love to know what these are or doing there …And another two more.
Its original identity might beAnd another two more.
Yes,definitely.The Hero's airship makes me think of the 'Hyperion' from the 1974 live action Walt Disney film 'The Island at the Top of the World'...
I think that the albatross also likely provided some of the inspiration for the Prometheus as well.

Not only the nosecone but entire cockpit!Does anyone know for which movie this CF-104 received a U-2 nose cone ?

Parked inside Bodø Air Force Base on a snowy day. Previously in service with the Canadian and Norwegian Air Force. Aircraft used for ABDR (Aircraft Battle Damage Repair) and is a hybrid. The nose was fitted from a U-2 for the plane to appear in a film. Now in the Bodø Museum store. - Photo taken...www.airliners.net
Speaking of Ghost in the shell,I was just watching the movie version again tonight when I spotted this Hind inspired helo right at the end of the movie.
Water retention…it makes everything bloated and irritable.Does anyone know for which movie this CF-104 received a U-2A nose cone ?

A strange helo used in the movie Zero Dark Thirty.
That is a beautiful paint scheme on a beautiful aircraft.I am surprised that no one has yet mentioned the amazing Mirage 2000-10 from "Les Chevaliers du Ciel" (2005)

That was such a weird wing...A tilt rotor that appeared in the anime, Ghost in the Shell: Innocence. It has a strange, fully-articulated wing and is apparently pilotless but carries passengers in the cupola under its belly.
Yes, "Top Gun: Maverick" contains some excellent CGI of this ficticious SR72 plus additional CGI footage of Sukhoi 57 and F-14 Tomcat. Sukhoi 57 are too new and too few to fight in Ukraine, while I doubt if the Iranian Air Force is willing to rent out any of their few remaining airworthy F-14 Tomcats.Screengrab from Top Gun: Mavericks secret X-plane (SR72?).
just seen in Lady Gaga's videoclip for the movie theme.

All the rest of the flying footage is easier to believe than TG1, with many shots of actors pulling Gs in real F-18D cockpits.
Hard to believe, but TGM is even better than the original. When TG1 debuted, I was wrenching on CF-18A Hornets at CFB Baden-Solingen, West Germany.
Yeesh. If that's "art," bring on the AI. A lot of that stuff was just crap, both in execution and idea.An article on Hush Kit on aviation art of the Cold War.

The bulk of aviation art is concerned with realism, historical accuracy and a sentimental celebration of the machine – and a simple form of national history. The values espoused are at …hushkit.net
