Very nice!

I did an FAA Javelin about 10 years ago (sadly it has not survived) I used the Heller T.3 kit as the basis.

Those Javelin kits are designed in such a way that they are practically begging to be navalized with those separtate outer wing sections.

In my world whifs don't need to be justified :D  but would it work?

A tailed delta should reduce the approach angle on landing and the pilot's vision looks acceptable but what about take-offs?

Magnificent looking model  :salute:
I still wonder if the RAF should have bought the Vixen instead of the Javelin, though!

Brilliant build. That Javelin looks amazing and the wing fold is superb!! Well done.
