USAF/ Jolly Rogers Draken


Another insane Saab skin from me :crazy:

 

Yet again it's a fictive skin. It's a Saab J35 painted to resemble Jolly Roger's aircraft.

 

A possible story that could lead up to an aircraft like this would be if the cold war wouldn't end, Sweden didn't make the cuts made in the late 80's, and then went on into the 90's, meaning that Sweden could afford to make an Agressor program. And to maintain neutrality, the aircraft would be both painted in Russian and American schemes.

 

Or another could quite simply be that the US during the cold war would have a policy of getting the most efficient aircraft, rather than whatever the US industries come up with. Which would result in purchasing a few Drakens for evaluation. Why it would end up on an aircraft carrier based unit needn't be explained.

 

I want to mention that this skin is based on whiteknight06604's bare metal Draken skin. Also, this is a first version. I'll see if I'll improve it later, anyone willing is free to improve it himself, but mention me and whiteknight.

Great skin. Hate to break it to you, but the Jolly Rogers is a US Navy unit, not USAF. Hey, its a ficticious skin anyway! Actually wish the USAF would get a little style in their paint jobs anyway.

 

Better still, bring USN and USMC flying units into the USAF. That ought to stir up a hornet's nest!
