Not sure if this is  the right  place  or if I  should have put it in the ideas page. Not long back I  did a modified  harrier  gr1 with a radar  nose and red top missiles,  i have been looking at  sea harriers  as an upgrade version of  said interceptor Harrier  also armed with  red top missiles, in the mid to late  70's just before the  sea harrier  come into service. The thing  will be , much like the one i built, a forward  based aircraft  working alongside  GR1 harriers in Germany, but will be a more  built for purpose  aircraft.  This aircraft in my wiffverse gave  birth to the sea harrier. I  know that the esci/ertl/ italeri  kit of the frs1 is the one to have as regards to  accuracy  in 1/72nd scale, but finding one  without paying over the odds could be  challenging.  So, what are my other options  in this scale  that are not  difficult to  find for decent money.  Thankyou for any and all comments.

The Airfix Gr3 and Sea Harrier are both perfectly serviceable 1/72 kits and readily available.

Cheers, I  have read that the sea harrier has  a few problems  with it, and the GR3 won't fit in with  what I want to do as it will be mid to late  1970's
Cheers
