Got three of these from Evilbay for a bargain.


R.A.F G. EF2000c Ground Attack aircraft circa 1990, hurried into service following the Tornado wing root fatigue 'issues', fitted with centreline gunpod, sneb pods and overload lgb's


Royal Navy EF2000Ni, fitted out for anti-shipping role based aboard H.M.S Princess Charlotte, aircraft is fitted within Penguin anti ship, SLAM and Anti Surface missiles alongside nav and elint pods. For the sharp eyed you may notice the oft field fitted unofficial non-conformal fuel tanks.






U.S Marine Aggressor unit EF2000A - JSOW and Harm missiles fitted, elint and navaid pods to front recessed fuselage missile bays.

The last one in the SEA scheme looks odd - but cool. Could also be in Brasilian service?

What Dizz said.

Great modelling but what did you use to take the pictures?  If it's a phone you haven't still got the protective plastic film over the lens have you (don't laugh, i've seen it done)?

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

These 3 were/are the Airfix version of a 17 Sqn Typhoon, basic but buildable.
The next 3 are somewhat of a curates egg
Revell early 90's EFA/JF90 - very basic and only looks like a typhoon through  squinted eyes.
Italeri 2 holer - pretty good detail, pish poor painting by yours truly
Revell 2 holer ( 2004?) version, excellent detail, no paint as yet, but will be a BoB german version.
Pics to follow once tablet is cleaned off, probably this weekend.
