They look like SLAM er to me, Standoff  Land Attack Missile extended range

If you cant eat it hump it or fight it,
Pee on it and walk away!!

Yes, thanks. You are right. It took me a very long time to get the answer, because if you look for SLAM missile you get this  ???

Ok in the RW.the Typhoon wouldn't even fly...in WW tho it will fly like a demon  ;D
Love Wiffy World  :thumbsup:
This is gonna be very cool maniac .
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Viggen style jetpipe.......Intriguing........
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

Models are:

Old Hasegawa Viggen, tipical 70's models, raised details but correct shape. I built it when I was a boy. Its armoured plastic make it a good base for whiffing :thumbsup:

Esci/ERTL Eurofighter. Soft plastic with recesed details and questionable accuracy.



Surprisingly, coherence between both sections is notable. There are not steps difficult to fair over.





Total effect of removing original aft fuselage, with engines, and addition of a big engine, is an length increase of about 35 mm. Accordingly, I decided to move aft main undercarriage about 18 mm. Typhoon engines will go to a Mirage-2000 to convert it in Mirage-3000. ;)

What is the word "accuracy" (exactness?) meaning in our whif World? ;)

Wiffy accuracy is close to close but not necessarily exact and i love it  :thumbsup:
And this build is looking very good so far  ;D

Reminds me of something I began building kitbashing a Typhoon with a F-16 to create this.

I never did get around to finishing it but I might have another go at building it.

It also applies to how close your finished creation is to the pictures in your head.

- 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.
