Vive la France! ... Voilà le GB!

[Slerski]

non.
Je parle it only un peu.

Got a Revell Gannet that might make it to the build, as it'd look good in desert camo, but other possibilities are:

F-86F
Suez French Navy P-38
Vichy Bf-109K

Vichy Bf109K (with sexy stripes  )

[Radish]

Bon. Already worked out the story, scheme, etc.. and the kit is in the stash (in 1/48th) about 6 times over. I think it's a "go!!"

Of course, other possibilities remain, or as suggestions for others:

Vichy Beaufighter X
F-107
BAC Lightning F.6
Seafire 47
Beriev Be-6
Me 262 in Vichy colours??

Vichy's stripes are always sexy!

In the other hand, F-86 and EE Lightning must be seriously considered.

[Radish]

Got some ideas......yes....definite ideas.....and decals, kits, time....

[ChernayaAkula]

How about a Ki-84 Hayate... in Aeronavale markings..... over Suez? 

[beowulf]

like i said elsewhere im planning on a SU25 Froggy Frogfoot  ...........2 tone brown dezzy cam.............just need to find the time now

D'accord j'ai in! (sorry my French is rudimentary at best)

[ChernayaAkula]

A bit of inspiration:

And just when you thought a Mirage 2000 couldn't possibly get any more sexier, Zacto did this marvellous profile of a Mirage 2000 in Vichy markings.

Moi aussi, mes braves.

What about a COIN/CAS version of the Breguet Alizé with wing guns and rockets/bombs etc for use either over Vietnam (assuming the French stayed there) or Algeria?

^ How about some UH-1 gunships or even AH-1Gs for use by French Army Aviation there.

How about Ki-84s in Indochina (as the did fly some Ki-43s).

Spitfire F.22s in Indochina? War-weary like the Mk IXs and toting bomb-loads?

Fw 190Fs in Indochina or Algeria?

PB4Y-2 Privateer in photo-recon version mapping Africa?
