This is the thread for airlines. There are two active threads for combat aircraft right now.What about fictional fighter aircraft? Say, reborn early Cold War/late WWII fighter or fighter-bombers modernized with new engines and avionics for Vietnam or Iraq or COIN operations?
Potential example: F-86F sabre. Swap J47-GE-25 engine with TF-34 from A-10 (improves thrust from 5970 lb/f to 9275 lb/f [+55%], TSFC of 0.363 vs 1.014 [even increasing thrust overall, fuel efficiency increase of 1.5x or more?], and TF-34 is about 500kg lighter), replace the six M2 machine guns at .50 caliber with a pair of modern 20mm aircraft cannons (or up-gun it yet more?), add more pylons, perhaps lighten the frame with more modern aluminum alloys and/or carbon fiber, modernize the radar & avionics et al. Not meant to be supersonic, and would likely require some re-engineering for the different pylons and dimensions of the engine, but its ATL capabilities would be something to think about, especially if starting from an existing aircraft would be more cost-effective than developing a new one.
With this particular example, the issue I'd see is that the F-86F has a single centerline engine inside the fuselage, and the fuselage is built around that. I don't think slotting in the new intake, engine bay, and exhaust for an engine 40cm wider will be all that easy?Potential example: F-86F sabre.

Per Mr. Not Stockdale if there are open combat aircraft threads I'll take this over there as not to thread-jack.With this particular example, the issue I'd see is that the F-86F has a single centerline engine inside the fuselage, and the fuselage is built around that. I don't think slotting in the new intake, engine bay, and exhaust for an engine 40cm wider will be all that easy?
