That's a screenie from Flight Sim 2004, I recognise the scenery and I've got the C-130H floatplane model too. Sadly it flies like a brick!

A VC-10 AEW , or in my case Ilyushin-62M.
Got chatting to a bloke who worked on the Air conditioning system for the E-3Ds. He told me that the VC-10 was proposed as a AEW, bomber and ASW. With interchangeable nose and rear cones.
One of the reasons why the Nimrod AEW never made it into service is they couldn't cool down the radar. The only people using carbon materials at that time were the Americans.

Martin Seamaster, did one in CCG colours a few years ago

An old one, but it looks so cool...


Except to potential drug smugglers..........  ;)
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! :)
