Here is my now completed  single seater, BAC Cougar FGR-1. Used with great sucess during the Gulf war in 1991, along with it's 2 seater variants. Kit is the Hasegawa Mitsubishi F-1, with Airfix gulf war Buccaneer decals, and ordnance from the spares box.

I've got one of these in the drawer of doom. After seeing this I need to get it out!

Looks good Chris.

No idea why but the front end looks slightly Sukhoi'ish for some reason  :unsure:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

i see what you mean Chris, when I was finishing it off last night, I could see TSR 2 in it especially around the forward fuselage.  :thumbsup:

- 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.

The slight 'hump back' behind the canopy?
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! :)

That is where the second seat is on the T 2 version, I think, if I remember correctly, they made the single seat version from the 2 seat version.

Sorry, Kit, I should have put a "wink" emoji in there, too, to project the irony in the statement. ;)


I have, now. :thumbsup:
