Mmmm, got me thinking.  Could a Fairey Gannet be given the same treatment, or is the fuselage a tad too narrow?  unless twin Vipers were fitted maybe?  Would they provide enough puff (I suppose if they can push an HS/BAe 125 along they should)?  Anyone familiar with the Jet Provost will probably be familiar with the saying 'constant  thrust variable noise'.


That sounds highly plausible Dave, the Gannet's a fat old thing once you get past the intake area, and there's enough room for two crew members side by side in the AEW3. (Only just though, you need to be VERY friendly....)
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! :)

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Even the nose lip above the intake is somewhat Soviet  :thumbsup:
Whatever.

What armament! Just the two wing .50's?
