AAC SRM-1 (there's most of a TSR-2 in there somewhere)

I started this one a while ago, would it be eligible? It is a fare way down the build track but still with lots to do. Still need to sort out some engineering, filling panelling, weapons, under carriage work. I had planned a 10SQN 1939 colour scheme for it, perhaps as a commemorative paint scheme, or maybe not.














Oh and AAC SRM 1 stands for Australian Aircraft Corporation Strike Recce Maritime 1.

Is that a Tornado canopy?

Certainly is, and its attached to a forward the section of a Tornado fuselage .

So far I have used parts from an Airfix Tornado (F3), MPC S-3A Viking, Revell F-111A and Italeri RF-4.

Those pictures of the nose make it look strange, I have reworked it a bit and may replace it to make the 'R' in the title a bit more obvious.

Despite the mostly American recipe, it really looks like a child of TSR2 and Jaguar parents!

And its proceeding well, looking forward to the completed.

Does, dosen't it. I always admire people who can pull these "Frakenstein" type builds off with such aplomb  :bow:

Well this one is still one the bench and I hope to finish it up soon. Some minor cosmetics have occured since the last update. Hope to post pictures soon.
