Correct me if I'm wrong here, but from what I read here it wasn't even a prototype, but a built Tamiya model or something like that (not even in 1:18 scale) meant to deceive us, to deceive the competitor Admiral, who did and does have a prototype. I've seen pics of it sitting next to the prototype Dauntless, It's tangible it's real.ExC17load wrote:Everyone said they didnt have the moulds, but the "ad" had the grey plane. I understand it may have been a prototype, but it was at least something tangible. Maybe there is still hope.
Now that's kinda squirrely if you ask me, and one of the reasons why we didn't get an F-4 Phantom sooner.
