OK.  I only skimmed the video with the sound off.  There seemed to be a lot of other crap in there.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed, badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry.

Messier 82's latest: his take on the A-X (A-10) requirement, this time with upper-surface-blowing engines and an even (slightly) bigger gun:


Reading the comments, I wasn't the only one that saw a superficial resemblance to a CF-100 Canuck.

This guy rambles on about crap that is boring to the point I bailed out on this. The few images of the aircraft are intriguing. The fuselage resembles the A-9, which was the only competitor to the A-10. The engines blowing over the wing looked good but I imagined them to be more like the Boeing YC-14. That's about as far as I got. He talked about an even bigger gun. That usually results in less ammunition. Not sure about that tradeoff. But at least he states that this design is pure fiction and was designed in a game. So I give a ton of credit for that considering what's out there today.
