The F-16XL wings look great on the F-106. The nose has a Vigilante vibe to it as well - maybe because of the intakes. It looks great and the backstory is good.

Thanks. I hope the 1/48 scale turns out as good, simply because I'm stuck with that POS Revell/Monogram calls an F-106. If only Hasegawa, Tamiya, or any other company would just replace that antique with something state of the art.

Frank: I think they look good too (plus it felt fun scrapping an F-16 kit).

Delightful, and the double arrow wing if you said so or double angle is superb.

Great idea and well done.

Love the "six"- I think it was arguably the best pure interceptor even flown, yes "better" than the Lightning. I know that may cause panic and heresay to some on this forum!

The Six was designed from the get-go to be an interceptor. Unlike a testbed aircraft that was rushed into production because the TSR.2 program was terminated if you're referring to the Lightning I'm thinking of.

*armored against the potential flames headed his way*

And this one adds a better dogfighting capability that Six didn't really have, even when they started mounting a gunpod in the aft weapons bay.

Well, I've met him, and he's not really my type, I think of him more like the brother I should have had. But the model is simply outstanding !!
