Couldn't you find room for more weapons? It looks a tad under-armed...............  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;)  ;)  ;)
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

Lots of "boom-on-demand" under that beastie... Excellent as always, Phill!  :mellow:  :bow:

Oh dear! We're going to have to give the maintainer that painted the markings a very long punishment detail! :-\

Roos go feet inwards on the wings & downwards on the fuselage, & nose forwards everywhere. :rolleyes:


Other than that ... Well done, Phill! I really like this Viggen! :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:

Very well done!
That extra pair of pylons under the engine, is that RW or imagineering?

Kit I tend to agree yet Rui seems to think there's plenty of boom boom so now I'm stuck in that proverbial when is to much not enough  ;D  :wacko:

Kit the RAAF is so anal about that marking that believe it or not they copyrighted it  :o
That's one of the main reasons getting AM markings is a pain because only licensed ppl are allowed to make em so yeah you can bet there's rules all right and I'd bet..many many rules 😉.

Ken those extra rear pylons are real world as I found out from one of the lovely gents on this thread ..seems tho their not used very often so of course I had to have em  ;D
So I went thru the pile and found a couple which might work and then hacked the hell out of em until they did 😳 😅.
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 .

The only limitation there Ken mate is your weapons stash  ;D
Missiles would be a good choice..easy stuff ..sidewinders or Amrams or ship killing weapons..quite alot of choices annoyingly.

Weirdly I have a heap of 72nd scale Hasegawa weapons sets and no real use for any of em ..would be happy to loose the lot 😉

The Viggen lends itself well to 'what if', yours is very striking! I like it a lot!

My warped brain immediately thought up a Viggen in Raspberry Ripple colours but painted in a 'Fields and Meadows' scheme.

Subtle it ISN'T!  :o
