Agree with Terry, particularly the radome! Never did like them in the grey either.

 

[Wayne Little]

Mig 25 is the next subject

 

[Vic Balshaw]

A sleek looking machine, but this one is missing it's character.

 

[Airframes]

Tend to agree. Looks nicely done, but is that a seam behind the cockpit, or ribs?

 

[Gnomey]

Nice one! Does seem a little dull and bland but that could just be the scheme.

I remember rushing to me LHS as a teen to get the newly released Foxbat model after the highly secret real version "defected" to Japan back in the 70's. A lot of hype about this one back then.

 

[Matt308]

Yeah I remember that too. And when I built the kit, all I could think was what a brutishly ugly thing it was.

 

[Wayne Little]

Not even heard of this one before...Armstrong whitworth AW 52

 

[Gnomey]

Good one!

 

[Crimea_River]

Neat. Learn something every day.

 

[Airframes]

Nice. It was a one-off experimental type from the 1950s, but can't remember what for - I think studies in 'flying wings'.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Nice one and yes T that was when there was a British aircraft industry.

 

[Wayne Little]

Last 2 for this category, only one of each was any good to post...F-14d and Jaguar.

 

[Airframes]

Good stuff. Jag looks good for the small scale.

 

[vikingBerserker]

Nice!

The Jaguar is one of the most beautiful planes to me.

 

[Crimea_River]

Nice to see a flying mount overy now and then as they're becoming rare.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Like them both as I think they are both a good looking plane design.

 

[Lucky13]
