Would like to have seen P3 orion or the P7 in RAF or better still Fleet Air Arm service

I'd like to see the NIMROD in RAF Service!  :banghead:
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 like the hi-viz B2 Toaster in the background. Which squadron was that with?  ;D

the b2 was  big improvement over the b1 because the b1 had a terrible payload (1 slice) and was prone to fires the b2 doubled the payload added an autopilot and was much less likely to blow up

The ATL3 proposed four engine Atlantique with RR Tynes and auxiliary jet pods under the wings. Either clear glass or fitted radar in the nose.

The Lockheed P-3 Orion with Rolls-Royce Tyne engines.
Yak-141/143.
Su-27 instead of the Eurofighter Typhoon.

Yes, me as well, however the P-7 in RAF markings would be nice, and having two LS/ARII P-3 kits in the stash gets me to thinking.  :rolleyes:

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

I'm adding the wings from the Airfix BAe Nimrod to my P-3 Orion. The Orion engines have been fitted to an Academy C-97.

Also avoid the Frog/Novo kit for the same reason.  Trumpeter has fit issues.  MPM/Special Hobby best of a bad bunch but u/c best replaced with Aeroclub white metal.
