Breguet Alize not just used for ASW

[McColm]

I don't know if there's a vacform kit of the Breguet Alize but Heller did a 1/100 and Mach2 do a 1/72.
Unlike the Fairey Gannet it seems the Alize was dedicated to a crew trainer or Anti-Surface/Anti-Submarine aircraft.
I have always thought a close support aircraft/light attack or AEW platform.
You could adapt it to all the roles carried out by the Gannet even change the engine to a contra-rotating or T-64.
Another Whiffer added floats to the Alize. You could change the canopy and add a rear turret.
SANDY missions or use it as an observation aircraft, yes extend those wings!

Love to see it either way...with a big under fuse radar or all bombed up and camo

Two more kits to add to the list:
Heller 1/50
Fonderie Miniature 1/48

Yes a COIN version would look good, just one on another site.

Dizzy did a COIN aircraft based on the Heller 1/100 Alize.

I think L'Arsenal do them in 350 and 700 scales as well ?

Just wanted to add this here... you were faster  :

1:72 Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. HAL HG-30 'Bāja', aircraft G 046 of No. 5 Squadron 'Tuskers', Indian Air Force/IAF; AFS Ambala, December 1971 (Whif) by dizzyfugu, on Flickr


As a side note, the Alizé was derived from a mixed propulsion attack aircraft, the Breguet Vultur:





Pretty aircraft, IMHO, maybe retrograding an Alizé is an option?

Think the Alize would Work for the Air Sea Rescue(ASR) Role? That was a Thought along with as a Customs Interceptor for Catching Drug Smugglers. Let me Know what You think. Dan

Thanks for the picture.
The Indian Navy used the Alize as an anti-drugs/smuggling aircraft so your ideas could work.
