SF-8 Crusader "Last Gunfighter"

Early Work in Progress. Rough estimations for many sections, and I am starting to flesh them out.

Closer view of some of the work I’ve done so far fleshing it out. Cockpit is basically identical to a real world Crusader. The air intake has been converted to a Gun Bay. The area behind the cockpit is envisioned to be the ammo compartment. I created a box top area behind that to replicate the main wing that could life up to increase the Crusader AOA when landing. I am designing that box area to be the Fuel Storage area.
