Quoted:
While it would be awesome to see a swept wing F-22, using the 14's wings to scale there is a great reduction in the Mean Areo dynamic Chord(MAC) and in such have created a really fast Jolly Roger lawn dart.
Very true. The NATF/AFX projects, featured a wider fuselage, giving it a much better overall wing area than the modeler was able to create using the parts at his disposal. The actual aircraft, had it been developed, would have looked much closer to this...
Which compares pretty favorably to the NATF and AFX official (supposedly) drawings...
You're looking at what is basically a stealthy F-14 using key F-22 systems and components, and in the case of the AFX, also possesses a strong ground attack capability.
