I have ever seen some layouts before ATF, but I couldn't remember there are some like these two, who can tell me which Inc. they were belong to?

The fighter in the second picture have the same wing shape as the F-16XL, with its inlet positioned behind and under the nose too, and also features a cannon carried on the port side.

F-16XL

I don't know for certain, although I'll bet Waynos can find out - but I think both of these are artists renderings of various proposals for the LightWeight Fighter program of the 1970's - this is the program that got us the F-16 and the forerunner concept of the F-18.

#1 Lockheed Concept circa 1981
#2 Gen Dynamics Concept circa 1981


Sorry, #2 is not the F-16XL; that aircraft had a cranked arrow wing.
