If I recall correctly, Wmaker's twice-removed busted Fairey Seal gave me a headache the last time I went looking for it too. :frown:

Here's something that looks familiar, but maybe it's not:

That actually makes the 24 look like a handsome airplane. Otherwise they are uglier than some Soviet birds.

That's a matter of opinion. IMO the H & J models, with their nose turrets, are the most impressive looking of all. That Frankenstein B-17 nose? Not so much. This looks like somebody just needed to burn up some of their IRAD budget, so they rubber stamped the project.

I'd really like to see a planform view of this thing to better see how they faired the nose into the fuselage.
