4 x Red Tops, 4 x Firestreaks AND an SUU-23A?  :o

Going Bear hunting by any chance?
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards
Kit

Gorgeous. For sure it would have looked exactly like that. Nice work. I need to get my hands on one of those kits. The underwing tanks would be perfect for a 48th scale Avro Arrow.
CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

You know, if you edited out the perspex rod holding the model in the air, the only thing stopping those from looking like photo's of a real RAF F-4E is the lack of a massive plume of black smoke trailing behind it! :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:

Quote from: mexchiwa on February 02, 2023, 01:30:04 AMI guess Ks and Ms just carried Sparrows and Sidewinders, but that'd be cool to see with British AA missiles


IIRC they carried Skyflashes on the recessed fuselage missile bays, but they look almost the same as Sparrows anyway.

That F-4E nose gun makes a much less draggy option than the SUU-23A pod that the F-4Ms actually carried.

Skyflashes looked so similar to AIM-7Es that they had to put big black spots on the wings to differentiate them.
