areaseven Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 FYI, it's Shintani, not "Shintaro." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight26 Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 My god a pirate 747, that's just funny looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander McBride Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Never seen these works, but I really want to read Alice 12 now, just to see what possible use a 747 like that could serve. Imagine, maybe it's a super-interceptor filled with hundreds of AMRAAMs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 I dunno thazt would suck, it would be like an oversized F-6D missleer. I LOVE shintani's work. Styalized simply yet very effective and he's a jet fan too. NOTHIN wrong with that!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight26 Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 ACtually in the 80's there was a concept for using converted 747s as long range cruise missile carrying bombers. They would have had multiple rotary racks filled with cruise missiles, interesting concept but was eventually rejected. I should have a picture somewhere of the concept model.

hellohikaru Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 @areaseven Was wondering have you done a review for Alice 12 and Phantom Murui . How do they rate ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellohikaru Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 I wonder what kind of 747 is Alice 12 ? From the pictures you see what appears to be a classic series flight deck but it has the extended upper deck of the 300 and winglets of the -400. And it has no windows. Doesn't really amount to anything. Perhaps it is a plane for smuggling goods like Yamato Valks. @knight26 The 747 cruise missile carrier you referring to carries ALCM and launch them from behind ?

Yeah, that's what gave me the idea, but that wouldn't make a very interesting manga series. So it's gotta be some kinda air combat thing!
