The Wooksta!

The engines for a start.  IIRC they weren't in the one I had circa 2001.

Cockpit is far better, detailes, there is a detailed gunner turret, the six complete engines, the A bombe...

That all looks really good  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

And makes you wonder what else it could be mated to. Hunter? Swift?

Doubt the Swift.  That nose looks quite portly compared to the slim nose of the Swift.  Looks to be bigger than a Hunter nose too.

Except maybe a Matchbox one, but that's too big anyway.

Is it practical to use this device in the blunt end of a Vulcan??

No, because that's where the landing parachute is housed, along with all sorts of electronic black boxes.

Which could be relocated.  I could see it on the bum of a Valiant, quite easily.   Anyway, didn't the RAF consider a tail armament for the V-Bombers originally?

This was what I had in mind,  but it's a fair comment. Where, as an alternative,  would you put the braking parachute and electronic gubbins?
