That's what you call a SERIOUS radome!  ;D

Great idea, and looking forward to seeing the completed aircraft after seeing your wonderful Vigilante.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

I'll be keeping an eye on this thread too! :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Amen to that!  :o

I still have a 1/100 scale VEB Tu-114 that in a mad moment I was intending to make into a Tu-126 AWACS 'Moss'. It's been in a part built state for almost 20 years and will probably stay that way.

Karlik's made of MUCH sterner stuff!  ;D
