NOT night-fighters! I'm already building one & I don't want to have to go over the same ground again too soon. ;)

I think the next GB would be the night fighters -for its number and influence on the history-. The korean war is interesting too... In that momment, had a coexistence between two types of proppulsion, and between two periods too: WWII, and the begining of the actual age of technology.

The only thing with Night Fighters is that you have to set some sort of cut-off point because when radar became mandatory for all fighters, the concept of a dedicated night fighter was dead. That is to say, an F-14 is a better night fighter than anything officially called a "night fighter", but nobody think of it as such.

the Isrealis still have "specialized squadrons" Including F-16I squadrons that are "nightfighters" the problem of course is that it looks like a regular old F-16I... but what about putting it in a night fighter scheme?  :wacko:

Like all over black, and with Ju-88 type radar trees on the nose?  ;D :lol:
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! :)

Well, I see the night fighters are slowly taking precedence.

 I admit, Nightfighters would be my first choice, ( no offence, Owen! ) but I'd be as happy with Space...( as long as your allowing SF builds-I mean, that is the opening VO for STAR TREK, after all... ;) )
