1/144 Lockheed S-75 and Xian Y-20 Kunpeg - Anigrand
Anigrand recent announcements:

 Lockheed SR-75 "Penetrator" August 2015
An odd choice, seems to be based on Testors Kit from the 90s?
It could have some interesting bonus items?

 Xian Y-20 Kunpeg -September 2015
This time a real development likened to a Chinese C-17?

1/144 Lockheed SR-72 Hyper-Sonic Reconnaissance Drone(2015) - Fantastic Plastic



1/144 Lockheed SR-72 Hyper-Sonic Reconnaissance Drone(2015) - Fantastic Plastic
In late 2013, Lockheed Aircraft announced it was developing the long-awaited successor to its legendary SR-71 "Blackbird" supersonic reconnaissance aircraft. Fittingly dubbed the SR-72, it's being pitched as a Mach 6 hypersonic aircraft capable of both recon and combat missions.


Although approximately the same size as the SR-71, the SR-72 will be unmanned. In other words, it's a drone. The plane reportedly uses a turbine to accelerate to Mach 3, then switches to a dual-mode ramjet to achieve Mach 6 -- more than 4,100 mph!
