The Rockwell XFV-12 went into the 70ies, so no luck either

Lockheed?

I fail to see any resemblance with what Eichhörchen posted in the pictures..
i had thought about the F-109 before, but the jet nozzles somehow do not fit.
So is it the Bell D-188A/F-109/F3L ? (the designations are theoretical anyway)

I'll stab a guess at the Bell D-188A and if correct pass it over to Kai.

Rats! Under "1950's: Bell jet prototypes that never flew" the Bell D188 A does not appear... but I've led Catfish to the promised land....again
