It actually reminds me of an Me-262 on steroids...... Look at the tail and the sweep of the wings. Maybe I need to get out more, but......look at it.

It has Italian lines.... but I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

I have no clue. It's kind of a mash-up between a T-33 (canopy and part of main fuselage, an A-10 (engines and a tiny bit on the wings), and a Harrier (tail structure). Good luck in your search Billy.

maybe it was some sort of movie plane that never really existed in a production model. Although the Boeing hangar may be a clue as chicharrero said.

Just checked. Chicharrero is right. It's the Boeing Skyfox Advanced Trainer. it was a very highly updated and upgraded version of the T-33. Hence its presence in the photo. That's a new one for me to learn about. Cool.

Definitely a "coool" looking plane. I wonder if there are any 3-views around...






(waits to see if any heavier hints are needed)
