well it it is an S trying to pass as a J after all lol.

and heres a pic of the bird with full war load.


So its a Phantom F Mk-1 of 892 squadron, fleet Air Arm. operating from HMS Queen Elizabeth some time in the mid 1970's.

Why F-1 rather than FG-1? simple, the Navy wanted its Phantoms for CAP work not ground pounding, thats what the Buccaneer was for.
I always hope for the best.

And heres were the decals for the Italeri F-4S went to............


This is an F-4L of VF301 based at mirimar in 1983. An americanized F-4K. Apparently it was looked at. Of course its a Matchbox kit.

The two aquatic canberra's are on hold for now (got bored of em ) so heres another one. photo shamelessly pinched from the Cosford show thread.thanks to brother narses for the photo :)

Its an Airfix mash up. The fuss is the Airfix B-57, with the wings pinched from yee olde Airfix Canberra B(I) 6. So its powered by RR Avons rather than the usual B-57 American engines. The decals came from the same B(I) 6 kit. It also has the Gun pod from the B 6 kit :) althou you cant see it or the hard points under the wings :)

The B 57 wings will find their way onto the rest of the afore mentioned B 6 at some point.
I always hope for the best.
