As real as the upcoming movie "Stealth", filmed with this A-37 studio prop on
the USS Abraham Lincoln.   Only Hollywood would re-use the A-37 designation for
another plane and have the pilot not wearing an O2 mask.   And for a real
airplane, that droopy nose would be an issue, for a Mach 3-4 plane that large
picture-window canopy would have to be be an issue.
