It is the Russian heavy bomber Kalinin K7 of 1933
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalinin_K-7
It is difficult to find an image that is not of the fake version. There are some where you can see it with naval howitzers hunting flying saucers.




The bonus:
 for its landing gear configuration and sealth tail is clearly an F-35 IH...
the IH designation is for the exportation to the third wold countries, manofactured under licence  by International Harvest.

I usually try to understand what the letters in acronyms stand for.

The NOTOL in the innovative IH version, does that mean NO Take Off and Landing?

The NOTOL capability is designed to make spike top tactic.
Consists of a flush flight at low height and speed to be able to attack the grains and fumigate the ground at the same time. For this the airplane does NOT have to take off or land. ;D

cheers!

You have a great bonus in last post Max! :D

This is an easy one.
I am sure he is the inspirer of the aircraft of the blocks carrier  of my childhood.




I'm sure of the small piece of plastic is better designed and flies better than the real one. o_O




Cheers!

One of my all-time favourites: The Vought F7U Cutlass.
What a nice looking plane, and what a brick to fly unfortunately!
If it flew just half as good as it looked, it would have been a much greater success.

Nevertheless, some details about the depicted plane, which has been neatly photoshopped 8)
This is the real photo:


The plane shown is an F7U-3P "Bulp Nose" Cutlass Air Development Squadron VX-3 (US Navy), NAS Atlantic City, New Jersey, 1955.
Serial is 00/XC and BuAer No. is 128464.
Couldn't find reliable sources about the fate of that plane, sorry.

Best regards - Mike

Magnificent as always Mike!

It is also one of my favorite planes. I do not understand how someone had the balls to land that into a carrier.

You turn!

Sorry for the japan photoshop...  8)

The Ensign eliminator or the The Gutless Cutlass is corect too steven, but mike answer first. ;)

I am a specialist in rare variants of the F-35 and its capabilities LameHawk. :D

Regards!
