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

;D

Vichy Bf109K (with sexy stripes  :wub:)

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! :wub: :thumbsup:

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

How about a Ki-84 Hayate... in Aeronavale markings..... over Suez?  :wacko:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

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.

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?
