Fmic kit that uses the factory ram air and shroud as the air intake. Always thought this was a neat (but complicated from a piping standpoint) setup
In reply to 914Driver : I saw that Ferrari powered coupe at the LA classic auto show! BTW it’s for sale.
Atomic Cannon.
One of those atomic cannons is at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Go visit and you’ll also find Geronimo’s grave site, although his bones may be missing. The surrounding mountain range and nearby town of Medicine Park are worth the visit as well.

This one is in Barbados:

I'm working from memory but I think that version of the 16" gun was used for testing HARP (High Altitude Rocket Projectiles). IIRC they were able to get a range of something absolutely stupid like 125 miles with the thing. That paired with current precision guided munitions technology would have made a fearsome combination these days...
