Lovely! If I didn't know better I'd say it was a VTOL Naval patrol/observation/air-sea-rescue/EW type, with front compressor air deflectors in those big boxy intakes and rear swivelling nozzles. Basically a helicopter for the New Millennium.

Or no VTOL capability but swing wings for carrier use ?

Hahahaha!! That is glorious!! I love it.

Save on sheepskin jackets 

Typical though. You are always reading how cold it got in those turrets, so you give them some heating and they still complain

That looks a bit like a piston engined Meteor PR19.

Pretty cool, man!! Looks to me like an angry stinging insect flying about. Or, perhaps.... a Hummingbird!

(cheap second hand kits are always so tempting, and then you have to do something with them)
