It's actually Royal Navy.

The work on the Bv is good but I just can't believe it.

Oh that is nice! Revell 1/144 Typhoon/Eurofighter I think, but is the figure scratch built? But its imaginatively delightful, I work with a chap who flies RC models like that. I have seen footage on You Tube of such an model.
If I am targetted by JMNs, I'm in good Company.

No, no, no! You do not die for your country, you make the other one die!

The article says he is from the Tamiya Mustang.  From the size I am thinking the 48th scale kit.

Yep, it says 1:144 Revell Eurofighter and Tamiya Mustang pilot. No word about the pilot's scale. The builder says it is his first "large" human figure and turned out looking a bit gloomy: perhaps contemplating the price of jet fuel or a switch from MHz to GHz radio gear...  :lol:

Neat design, should probably have a centimetre wavelength radar of that era versus AI mk4 (1941) antenna.
Lots of guns! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

WOW!  So a Twin Spit was almost a reality?!  What prevented it from leaving the paper, end of the war?  Those would have looked so cool flying alongside Twin Mustangs in Korea  :wub:

As far as I can tell, the Twin Spitfire is totally imaginary.

... I had no clue what that is under the center wing ...


hmmm, there's a few other slightly unusual spitfires at:
