F-102, stealth fighter "cover" and support *finished*

[Rheged]

It would suit  1950's RAF fighter squadron markings, similar to Hunters.

Interestingly (and as an aside), I've been reading over on the SPF, that the USAF has been using F-117's recently in the aggressor role ---- some have been spotted operating in that role -- aaannnd photographed

That bird looks great in black! A version with red stars would be amazing.

Yes F-117's have been photographed flying in recent years, supposedly for verification of the long term storage efficacy, but some rumors that @4 went to the mid-East in 2016 for some operations. Another fascinating angle to the F-117 history perhaps.

I cannot help it, but this thing cries for Red Stars... 

Because it's in black? 

It has this Sixties US movie vibe - like an unpdated sister of the XF-92 which was abused as a MiG, too...



In black, it has a certain "Top Gun" appeal, too!

[ChernayaAkula]

Black, but will have a bit of disruption in the scheme....

The masking tape gives the wings an almost MiG-19-ish look. Nice!  Just needs appropriate tailplanes.

back at it, was in California for Christmas. 

Moved the starboard trapeze back a bit, the laser guided bombs are a bit longer than the Falcon Missiles.

F-102 used for F-117 development, training and support.  Tonopah Test Range, Nevada, 1983.

[Hobbes]

oh wow, that's excellent.

[Knightflyer]

oh wow, that's excellent.

I must echo the above sentiment, just love the faux-F117 paint scheme, it caught my eye at first look 

[PR19_Kit]

Oh yes, VERY clever. 

[kitnut617]

Brilliant idea 

[DogfighterZen]

That looks so good... 

[Weaver]

That looks good - I love deceptive cammo schemes. 

[TomZ]

Great idea and very well executed!
