  1. Grumman F-111B Bobcat - 178th Fighter Interceptor Squadron, North Dakota ANG, 1976 I'll be making an 'as is' release of the F-111B 'ADC' in the near future.
  2. Great work! Thanks to all concerned in bringing this superb package to us.
  3. SEPECAT Jaguar FGA.1 - No.6 Squadron, RAF Near East Air Force, 1971 In May 1965 the Memorandum of Understanding between France and the UK was signed regarding the joint development of a light strike aircraft for the Armée de l'air and an advanced strike trainer for the RAF leading to the SEPECAT Jaguar programme. However, an early realignment of the UK's requirement saw a sensible early move away from the advanced strike trainer to a tactical strike aircraft and an earlier order for the Hawker Siddeley Hawk. This decision led to the first Jaguar 'S' taking to the air in March 1968 and the first production machines entered service as the Jaguar FGA.1 with No.6 squadron based in Cyprus in November 1971.
  4. @ amariani - I can remember making 'Little Chief' as an Hasegawa 1/72 scale model ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pitch up!

  7. Recurring donation sent via PayPal. Keep up the good work.
  8. The Jaguar was very much underrated. One of my favourite Jaguar quotes is from Bill Gunston, the greatest aviation writer ever, who wrote in 1974, "Any ex-Lancaster chap will be interested to hear that the Jaguar, with a wing span ten feet less than a Spitfire, can take off from a UK base and clobber a point target in Berlin, in solid clag, with ten thousand pounds of h.e."
  9. Yes, they are new skins derived from Fast Cargo's templates. Tip! Create a layer with the F-111B nosecone (copied from one of the existing F-111B skins) and it works fine. The loadouts simply use the stock AIM-54A's for which you have to add the specific station code from the AIM-54A entry in the WeaponData.ini
  10. BAC Lightning FGA.7 - No.1 Squadron, RAF Strike Command, 1970
  11. From Wings Palette Unit: 51st PRG, USAF Serial: 14/FR (44-15102 ?) Pilot - Maj.Paul J.Verhooven. Busan, Korea, 1951.
