Have a look at the top photo, you can see where my RoKAF inspiration came from....

....Have to say not just Rafales' but to my eye, aircraft in 'tactical' camouflage just look so much more interesting than current standard blues & greys. Must be why I'm sold on What If builds, eh ??

Hi,

My last Rafale whif (2 years) :

I think that another US Navy will come in a next future. Single seater, same paint schème but with different VFA marking

(no idea for the moment)

Yeah baby, bring back the 'pack!

VF-1 ?? Hum... I will think about it

I also spot the VF-101 with its black and red fin :

Army of One · March 25, 2013, 09:31:41 PM

Oh yeah......the F14 VF1 wolfpack markings......I think it would look great on one.....or VF142 Ghostriders or VF143 Pukin Dogs.......

Damien......I have seen a Su27 in VF1 markings in an old style grey/grey/white scheme with the red hi via markings....looked great but I think the Rafale M would be awesome with those markings.....oh yeah.....

You have all my attention... I'm not au big fan of the VF-1 (I prefer VF-101, 103, 111, and few other) but if you have pics of this Su-27 maybe I'll think about this scheme
