What if instead of the Gnat the RAF had chosen the Northrop T-38 Talon as its advanced trainer back in 1960 ?
It could have entered service in 1964 and could have been used by the Yellowjacks team as the Talon T1.
All C+C welcome.

Go on, admit it! It was just an excuse to paint a Talon yellow wasn't it????  :mellow: :mellow: :mellow: ;D
SERIOUSLY thouigh, that is one superb looking bird. It's an amazing finish. What did you use for paint?
