Since the previous World's Ugliest Dog died recently, we may have a new winner....

Yup! Looks to be an F/A-18C model. Hmmmmmm, I wonder if the "C" actually stood for "Carrera"?

Kach,

Interesting looking bird. Do not see how they are going to get 250 mph out of it using that fan system but lets see. Would be nice to give it a try.

Problem is that the info on his website is from 2003 and no updates since that time, so wonder if its going to fly or not...

That looks to be the date of the article quoted from the magazine "The Economist" in 2003.

Quote:
Since the AMV 211 was completed last October of 2003, the aircraft has gone through some modifications:

* The engine cooling system was redesigned and rebuilt to address some occassional overheating problems.
* The landing gear and the aileron control system were modified for enhanced control and safety in the air and during the landing and take off processes.

In July of 2004 an FAA airworthiness certificate for experimental aircraft was issued.

Now the aircraft is undergoing an initial testing, making solid progress toward a complete take off, landing and hover as well.
