Well thank you very much my good Sir 😊
I shall and I've funnily enough thinking about the landing gear..making that look even more like a jags..with the single front and twin rear wheels..just not sure about their size yet .
Also been thinking about modifying the wings too..making em longer and wider ..they might be wide enough but pretty sure they won't be long enough  :wacko:
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

You could keep twin nose-wheels and still be Jag-ish. The singleton Jaguar M, test flown by the Aeronavale, had exactly that configuration.

And wings can NEVER be long enough!
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! :)

That does make life easier as ghe Tornado has those already..im definitely going twins on the rear..it'll look better  ;D

Just out of curiosity than anything else as I have no intention of using one, but would a Grumman XF-10F be a suitable basis for an entry to the GB?

Good question. It is, of course, a Jaguar too.

Disregard me previous message. I just reread Rule 2 which specifies the BAe/SEPECAT Jaguar.

... combine a Mitsubishi F1 and a Mirage F1 and call the result a SuperJag.


That is a great idea!! ;)
