I forgot to bring these what ifs over from ACR so here they r

A-6E+ Intruder back story:
in 1993 after being broken up for about a year or so the USSR reforms under a new Stalinist leader, who begins rebuilding the USSR military. in june of 1995 four Su-24 strike fighters attack  Elemendorf AFB in Alaska after a F-15E accidently over flys russian territory. on its way back from what is supposed to be  the final WestPAC cruise for the A-6 Intruder, VA-196 is given the go ahead to implment  several upgrade to thire A-6E's, which include, use of SLAM ER's, JDAM's, LGB-12's, 30mm Gunpods and LANTIRN ( i keep misspelling this did i do it right this time?) pods. also since the dark grey/light grey camo A-6's were painted in would actully make them stand out in thire new low altitude anti-shipping role, they were given a new Navy blue/Intermideiate blue/White top side splinter scheme, and an overall llight sea green underside, this was changed after a few missions to light grey. one of the Intruders used was no other then Devil 505 from flight of the inturder fame, wich is the one i am modeling

1. F-22A and A-6E+


2. A-6E pattern



F-22A Aggressor background:
in 2015 after ten years of service the F-22A Raptor is intorduced to the newly formed 66th ATS at Nellis AFB to be used as the new Aggressor to replace the final F-5E's and early F-16C/D's , the orginal 20 aircraft come from Edwards AFB, most of witch are part of the first batch of 10. the Raptors recived cutom paint schemes based on pilot perfrence in stead of real world threats as no other country has anything like the Raptor as of late. most schems are based off of the Su-27/37 family such as the one im doing



i have some more pics of the Raptor before painting, and i know the pics r shaky but ive been up since 1am friday so cut me some slack here lol :lol:

more soon

No need to cut any slack for you, man.

Your shaky hands have produced a marvelous piece of modeling and painting :bow:  :thumbsup:

That's a very eye-catching camo scheme you've got going on there. I'm looking forward to seeing more!
