QuoteMossie - I haven't seen the HS. 1202, but as soon as I get done here I'm going to look for it.  :D
I've had a good look for it on the net before & found no pics, just a few text referrences, but I posted a pic here a while back:
http://www.whatifmodelers.com/forum//index...l=hs\.1202

There's a small amount about it in BSP: Fighters.  As far as I remeber, the -11 had a single fin & looked identical to the F-16, except for the size & small detail changes.  Having had a look back in the book, there were twin engined variants (& I have seen the one in the book, D'oh!) but as far as I know none resembled the F-16, although it mentions some were also close to the F/A-18.  I might be wrong, but it seems that the HS.1202 studies were an exercise in exploring different layouts rather than any serious proposal.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Option 1 looks the best to my eye.

I've been looking at the wing too, and it is looking on the smallish side.  I debated making a bigger wing, but I like the idea of a root extension ala F-18.  I'm toying with canards too.  Hmm...this could get interesting.

Well another build idea I won't be first at.

I suggest you look at the xl wings

I like #3. It looks more like a high altitude, high speed fighter at the edge of space. :)

I agree :D

Now that I'm sober, #3 resembles a Su-27!

Well, I dug through the spare parts bin to see what I could do for a bigger wing or canards.  The wing augmentation seems like a lot of work, so I'm going for the uber-canards.  I should have something to show in a couple of days.

Thanks for all the feedback.

Either way it looks a bit like the 'Firefox' from the god awful Clint Eastwood film of the same name.
