Default Future Strike Eagle Release Request

Would love to see this one complete with an accurate loadout(see vid)

That would be most excellent

Yikes, not me.

Can grudgingly accept the need for these things for deterrence, but definitely don't want any nukes in the collection. Knowing what we know today, IMO those things are instruments of mass murder, not honorable combat. However, nothing against other collectors who do want them in their collections are part of history, of course-- obviously I'm not trying to tell others how to collect

...and I do have to admit that the physics involved in getting them into such a small package must be damned fascinating, especially since they're thermos. Lensing system on the physics package must be pretty

Personally would much rather see an Eagle with an ASAT

(Hope you don't take my opinion about nukes as anything against you personally Ron, definitely don't mean it that way )

Not at all Books
An Asat would be good too!
It would be nice to see some special weapons loadouts from time to time which is my point really.
That vid just got me thinking about it.
The B-61 is a reality however unpleasant they may be and no worse than the other nasty s we have in our collections except in scale and effect.
You still have to get them over the target and the aircrews still have to deal with defenses.

Meanwhile the FB-111A that comes with 2 (or 4) nukes...

I wholeheartedly agree with Ironclaw, some unique weapons loadouts would be very welcome to my a/c collection. Whether it be the B-61 or ASAT. I'm sure many a/c enthusiasts own a model of Enola Gay - and some maybe even have Little Boy inside the bomb bay (yes circumstances were/are different but a nuke is a nuke).

But disregarding models, I am anti-nuke.
