Early Lockheed XF-90 Concepts — L-153, L-167 & L-169 Studies

Check out this article at RetroMechanix.com on early concepts for the Lockheed XF-90 long range penetration fighter:

The article features 26 images, including high resolution three-views of some very unusual configurations. Plenty of inspiration for some interesting scratchbuilt models!

The pic you posted is almost a dead-nuts match for the Gloster Javelin (except for the intakes, of course). Wonder if there was any communication between the two design teams on that?
