I know what you are saying and its all speculation now.

Here is a really goofy looking German jet fighter that would have also been devastating on our bomber fleets.

The HE-162 Volksjager

It’s funny how odd designs end up in production aircraft.

Both Eclipse and Cirrus have developed very light jets loosely based on the Salamander’s design. They are very cool looking with a single jet engine on the top and a vee tail.

The Eclipse 400 put on a dramatic aerobatic demonstration at Oshkosh earlier this month.
