I don’t hate it, but it looks like it would be extremely unbalanced in flight, or really rear heavy.

I’m back with more Canadian stuff. This time with two unbuilt variants of the Bobcat APC.

A light recce version. With a 76mm Saladin turret and SS.11 Missiles by what I found listing it.

One with a Davy Crockett

Now there is a real and in turn WT possible variant with a 105mm gun.

Based on pure technicalities, this is both an unfinished prototype and could theoretically he added… not that it ever will be.

A3923-17

It is built off of the wrecked hull of the actual Yamato, which because of navals odd rules means it is legal.

I got a few interesting ones.

Landsverk project on how to improve the m/42, hull mounted cannon as well as a dual AA/AT main gun in the turret.

Swedish coastal defense ship from 1911, closest thing to a Swedish Dreadnought you can get.

Landsverks IKV 65 Alternatives, like a cold war Pvkv m/43

The good ole Ansaldo proposal, most likely going to be the top tier for Swedish naval despite not being ordered simply due to how well known it is.

Saab project 1390, would have carried RBS 15’s if i remember correctly
SWED- Saab Projekt 1390 may-1961_02EX

The landsverk Pansarluftvärnsvagn based on a leghtened Pbv 302 chassis
Plvv 302

The inter war tank project A4C

The Strv m/41 S-III Torn A Alt 1, one of 4 alternatives proposed by Landsverk in 1943 taht were based on a heavily modified Strv m/41 and made as a response to the Soviet T34’s inspected in Finland.

Object 699. Proposal to mount NATO weapons systems in the BMP-3 chassis, including the Mistral and Wildcat SAM systems.

IMG_4591

“At the initiative of many foreign companies, SKBM conducted pre-contract work with the companies Matra Defiance France, KMSh Peru, Giat France, TDA (Thompson-CSF) France, Veta Bulgaria, OTO Vneba Italy, Patria Famım Sweden-Finland on the possibility of installing on the universal naval system (object 699) the Mistral, 3PK Wildcat SAM systems, the Milochatse minelayer, the 120-km 2R2M mortar, the creation of a combat missile system for Bulgaria, a cannon with a variety of calibers of pistol armament, and a twin-barreled AMOS mortar mount. Each of the projects involved the sale of 50 to 300 samples of object 699. The leading engineer for object 699 was S.F. Zakamdin.”

Does this count?

Here’s a fun one: Hawker P.1030.

Hawk1030side

Functionally, a Hawker Tempest redesigned to take the Rolls-Royce Eagle 46H eagle making ~4,000 hp+.
It was expected to be able to reach a top speed of 508 mph/819 kmh at 6,069 m with an eye-watering climb rate of 1951 ft/min or 32.51 m/s.
There’s a thread on the Secret Projects forum that has a bunch of interesting info on it, and it’s one of my personal favourite prop designs.
