Swift F7

[andrewj]

This is a Swift F7 as imagined in squadron service, markings are for 56 Sqd RAF , based on those carried by the F1. The F7 was only used by trials units and by the end of it's use had proved to be quite a successful aircraft/ weapons combination. Bill Gunston , the aviation writer , quoted a Supermarine engineer as saying that the RAF had discarded the best weapons system availible to them in the F7 , but then he would have said that , wouldn't he ?.

Model is converted from the 1/72 Xtrakit FR5 with scratchbuild additions and missiles.
