A Syrian Desert Storm pair, actually.

Although... l did build a Syrian Alpha Jet yonks ago, but back then l thought of it being about intervening in Lebanon, but l have now included that into the Syrian Desert Storm story above. So, in a way l have built a Syrian Desert Storm trilogy, but l think the Alpha Jet would likely have drop tanks fitted and the build carries 4 Mk.82SEs instead, so it's likely depicted as seen prior to a short combat hop into Lebanon from a western Syrian base. That's why l refrained from photographing it with the Starfighter and Tigershark.
Whatever.

I may not be a fan of the F-104 but that's a nice build and idea!  :thumbsup:

Unlike my esteemed colleague Mr Zen i love the 104..sleak and fast..yup i will always love this bird and Mr Harps built it very nicely  indeed  ;D
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 .
