It's not a product from Lockheed.
Wayne that's an interesting photo. I think it's the high altitude version of the Myasishchev Bison, the Project 28 (2M), but I didn't know it was built(?) or reached the mock-up stage...
"Project 28 -- To overcome air defenses, a high-altitude version of the M-4 (project 28) was studied but not developed prior to the in 1960 to shut down the Myasishchev OKB." M-4 / Mya-4 / 2M, Myasishchev 'Bison' - Russian and Soviet Nuclear Forces |

Country: | Yes, thats the one Graeme. Its the full scale mock up of the Myasischev M-28-2.
If yours is not the P-80 in some form I'm currently at a loss having already dismissed the XP-54 and Canberra. Clue?

Moving along. Next one...

Country: | Hi all,
I´ve been out all weekend and I can see I´ve missed some good aviation debate... The last little one is a Seabird SB7L-360 Seeker. |

Country: | If you like Russian projects, I'll see what I can do Graeme. Yes, the M-28 is from my own library. I'll stick to the guideline about nothing less than at least a mock up being posted, starting here;

Country: | Not entirely sure Wayne, but I think this is what a lot of "authorities" in the late 50's and early 60's called Faceplate...
But is in fact the precursor to the MiG 21, the Ye-2...? |

Country: | I really love soviets planes too, but sometimes it´s difficult distinguishig such subtle details amongst so many I and Ye prototypes, but I would say this is a Mikoyan Gurevich I-75 prototype. |

Country: | Now I´m reconsidering my answer and I would say the MiG I-7U; the I-75 being a MiG I-7U with a broader nose. |

Country: | Yes, thats it, the I-7U. Excellent spot. I won't just keep posting Russian ones but I still have loads to come.

Country: | That would be the Yak 28-64.
How many Observers do you have Graeme? Worth me using as a source? I've got 1943 to 92 plus a couple of post 2000 German ones (WHY do we not still do this book in English? grrr)
BTW, the I-7U is not the same one as the 'Faceplate', it is similar, but different, your 1960 OBA is fine.
