SEPECAT Jaguar GR1. RAAF.

What if Australia had bought Jaguars to replace their Mirage IIIs in the ground attack role?

This aircraft, black 20, is pictured in an experimental camouflage scheme designed for low level attack across the Australian bush.

It is carrying Sidewiders and a pair of Bunjil* ASMs.  Bunjils are a variant of the Sea Eagle produced in Victoria by arms manufacturer zenrat industries.

Did they fly UNDER the 'roos then?  ;)

I love that, the Jag always looks a goer, but in that scheme it looks very lethal.  :thumbsup:
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! :)

Yes.  RAAF aircraft are allowed to operate as low as 25' above sea level.  A big male Red Kangaroo can jump that with ease.  It's why they are so good at basketball.

Love the camouflage scheme!  :wub:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

No, football.  The males do too but if I had said that you would have assumed I meant soccer and got confused.    ;)

What's this 'football' you talk about?

Is it like cricket but the bowler kicks the ball down the pitch?
