Last one's best IMO.

Looks like it's just had a scare from something unpleasant to me

The photo in my above post is there - I don't know why you can't see it.

Some more Dominicans:

Probably a browser issue here that the pic is not displayed. It's strange, though, because this happens only VERY rarely?

The Dominicans look good. They are snarling.

IMHO the Super Tucanos look very mean. The shark mouth is like a must for this a/c:
Colombia

Peru

Indonesia

Angola

Brazil

and so on...

And I'd thought the shark-mouthed mixer was weird. But now there's THIS for your work room's ceiling!

And then there's this creative application of the shark mouth concept:

And finally, multiple artwork, kind of "concept album"? Note the stabilizer floats!

I passed an International Scout(!) this weekend with a shark's mouth on the fender. Didn't have time or ability to grab a pic, because tourist season at the Jersey Shore

Are air launched torpedoes still in use or is it all Anti Ship Missiles these days?

They wouldn't be torpedoes as you might imagine from back during WWII, but modern ones like what the Nimrod, P-3 or P-8 use would look the part. The Super Tucano could carry three I expect --
