The P-3 and Nimrod both started out as airliners, so it's perfectly feasible. I'd be very suprised if Boeing isn't pitching a 'bomb truck' civil-based aircraft to the Pentagon at the moment. Boeing looked at a variant of the 747 as a cruise missile platform. IIRC the idea was to eject them out the side cargo door. They also have ideas about an ASW platform based on the 737. Cheers David
