A-51 Stallion....

A-51 Stallion....

When World War II ended, the venerable wartime North American Aviation P-51 Mustang spawned the twin-fuselage F-82 Twin Mustang. But history almost forgot the way the F-82 was in turn reworked in the form of a twin-boom, high tail attack plane, the A-51 Stallion, sort of a cross between a P-38 Lightning and NAA's later Bronco.

Like the string of other attack prototypes that appeared at the same (see the rest of this gallery) the A-51 program was dropped when the attack mission was abandoned by the newly formed U.S. Air Force, and only three YA-51 aircraft were built


Wonder if this is purely a photo montage......hehe....

I don't think the twin lightning would work...isn't the pilot where engine accessories...or the spar (an important part)...or the gear...be?

Yeahhh, it also looked pretty warm between the engine and the turbocharger.
