Mcdonnell Model 60

For awhile I've wanted to create aircraft models. I have a deep interest in aircraft, especially those that have been forgotten or never built. The Mcdonnell Model 60 was a concept for a Navy Interceptor in 1948. The aircraft would be sleek, with a delta wing layout and twin vertical fins. Ultimately, Mcdonnell's other concept design submitted for the same requirement, the Model 58, would win and eventually become the F3H Demon, leaving the Model 60 to never leave the drawing board. Personally, its one of my all time favorite aircraft designs so I decided I'd model it and showcase maybe what one would look like in service.
