Right ive been thinking on this idea for a while and it's been bounced back and forth in my head trying to get the ideas to flow on how to build it ..well it clicked two days ago and it's already in PSR  .
It's a mish mash of parts..like the name suggests the main part is the fuselage of a A7 Corsair..the tail ..Mirage 2000..the wings and tail planes ..Tornado..the upper fuselage is Mig 23 .
It's in the second stage of PSR now with the third session possibly tomorrow.
Pics to follow shortly.
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

I never knew that you can use parts from non-1960s aircraft in this group build.

You can use what you like.  The final result has to be in service in the sixties.

Is to going to have variable incidence wings DUKWy?

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Sounds like there won't be much Corsair left to this one! We need pics to prove this exists! Will you do like ericr and build other combos from the remaining parts?

Ken these are thr remaining parts  ;D .
When you guys see this you'll see that it's clearly a A7 ..the cockpit..landing gear..exhaust..intake and the main fuselage are A7 .
Strangely even with the Mirage 2000 tail it still looks remarkably A7  :o

Someone did a pic of a Jaguar or Harrier for the GB with a Corsair tail that looked very cool. I'll have to look that up. I'm mentally checking the spare parts stash!

Duh! That was you!

Ok, that didn't work.



That's better.....
No wonder you have a Corsair fuselage and need the other parts! My memory is crap these days.....

I'm still thinking someone else did digital drawings.

Ah, here it is. A Harrier and a Buccaneer!
By ysi_maniac. That Buccaneer with a Phantom nose is very interesting.

😆😆😆
Yep this memory thing can be a real pain  :lol:

That build left me with a nice pile of bits ..it was just sorting how they needed to come together to make this thing a realization of what I saw in the noggin and the more I look at it the more I like this...far more than the Tornado.

Yup!



I'll probably need more by the time he starts (like at the movies/cinema). ;)

I think this one will be finished before the M48 is   :lol:

I'm really enjoying how this is evolving..no ideas about the weapons but I do know what paint scheme I'm going to use 😀

Yeah I think so to Ken ..it's a colour scheme I've been wanting to do for a while now and now I have the perfect excuse  ;D
Sadly no work on this today as strangely I have to eat which I kinda have to and if I do work on a model I forget to. 😅
