Cookenbacher Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Here is the desert companion to the Falcon FGR.1 found here: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234959568-172-falcon-fgr1/page-3 The WIP is here: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234966761-a-ridiculous-and-probably-ill-fated-viper-pentuple/ The Falcon FGR.2 differed from the earlier version by featuring the new 'Storm Cloud' internal ECM system in the leading edge of the vertical tail, and it was wired to accept the then new LANTIRN navigation and targeting pods. Four sets of LANTIRN pods had been delivered to the RAF for evaluation, and they were put into immediate use on Falcons in the Gulf as an urgent operational requirement. 'The Owl', Falcon ZC381, depicted here, was one of those jets: Thanks for looking. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypnobear Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 I like the look of that, the modifications and scheme suit it! Looking forward to seeing how your other RAF F 16 What If scheme comes out like too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tc2324 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Nice to see a Gulf War `pink` RAF F-16. The half painted fuel tank is a very nice touch as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingCornetto Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 My thoughts exactly. That half painted tank really adds something. I love models that have a subtle hint at a story to them, such as a part in primer or a miss matching stores load underwing. Gets you wondering whats happening in the little world it inhabits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Very nice. Like the authentic weathering too. So how about turning the tables and do UK/EU aircraft in US markings such as Euro Typhoon, Tornado, Hawk? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookenbacher Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 Thanks for the comments everyone. You've read my mind Paul, I have plans for an Oregon ANG F-25A Typhoon - I have a Revell kit reserved for that purpose, and have an eye on some newly released Caracal ANG themed decals.
