Awesome Lockheed

Inside the Lockheed CL-1201 Attack Carrier

Inside the Lockheed CL-1201 Attack Carrier

In 1969, Lockheed developed one of the strangest aircraft ever, the CL-1201. The experiment studied how large an airplane could be. The jet and nuclear-powered plane would deploy up to 24 fighter jets and cruise missiles. Another variant would carry nearly 900 troops. Mustard offers a deep yet speculative look at the top-secret plane. (Thanks, Chad!)
