RAINBOW PRECURSOR: TheRepublic XF-12, shown here in. prototype form, was originallydesigned for long-range photo- graphic reconnaissance workin the Pacific theatre of opera- tions. It is more interesting, today because it is the design on which the Republic Rainbowtransport will be based. Pre- sumably this transport will beentirely similar in outline to the XF-12.
