Dude! Do you want a piece of me?

Tempest Tail Nailed. Thanks Ed.

Ed - photos of the Tempest show that the fin fillet does not extend far enough forward on your model and the tail plane is still too high. I've superimposed Russo's piccie onto your piccie (above) onto the attached psd. Just click on and off the top layer to see what I mean. TempestTail.7z

In the UK they were often parodied as an item or couple in the satirical comedy show 'Spitting Image'.

Not cool enough!

The Belgian Mirage 5BA purchase brought to an end a 20 year joint purchasing agreement with the Netherlands.... unless I give the Skyhawk to the Dutch!

View File [Fictional] McDonnell Douglas A-4K Skyhawk 'BAF' McDonnell Douglas A-4K Skyhawk 'BAF' for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire DLC A-4K to give a fictional Belgian A-4K with markings for No.1, No.2 and No.42 squadrons of the Belgian Air Force with service years ranging from 1970 to 1991. If you haven't actually got the A-4K DLC you'll quickly be able to hack the contents to suit whatever you've got available to you. Please note that for simplicity (i.e. laziness) I've used the stock Mirage 5BA serial numbers. BACKSTORY In early February 1968 the outgoing Belgian Paul Van den Boeynants announced that the Dassault Mirage 5 was to be purchased as the desperately needed Thunderstreak replacement for the Belgian Air Force. However, within days, massive student unrest and questions of discrimination against the ethnic Flemish population led to the bringing down of the Van den Boeynants government and a new incoming government led by Gaston Eyskens. The new government immediately cancelled the order for the Mirage 5BA and instead purchased the American A-4K Skyhawk in a reduced purchase of 48 A-4K single-seaters and 12 TA-4K two-seat trainers. INSTRUCTIONS 1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the A-4K_BAF folder into your Aircraft folder. 2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the A-4K_BAF folder into your main Decals folder. 3. From the PILOTS folder drag and drop the PILOT_BAF folder into your main Pilots folder. 4. From the WEAPONS folder drag and drop the Orpheus folder into your main Weapons folder. CREDITS Thanks to TK and Third Wire for the continuous improvement of a great little game/sim. Thanks also to Steve S for the splendid Orpheus reconnaissance pod. And thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community. Regards Spinners Version 1 - 25/05/14 Submitter Spinners Submitted 05/25/2014 Category What If Hangar

I still think it's a bit too high. Put a ruler on the screen and you'll see what I mean.

Well even your three-view shows a bit of fuselage above the horizontal tail and tapering down. Perhaps this illustrates what I mean better.

Ed - would it be possible to set the horizontal tail a bit lower.
