Gekko_1 Posted May 23, 2010 Author Share Posted May 23, 2010 Great to see some new profiles Richard- I love the (F-14?) Kill markings on the second Phantom! Yes, 2 Iranian F-14's and an Su-24 Fencer, plus an Iranian Patrol boat. Cheers Richard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gekko_1 Posted May 23, 2010 Author Share Posted May 23, 2010 Always glad to see some more of these profiles..... Operation Hormuz Shield - is there another back story in the pipeline ? There is a story bouncing around in my head somewhere. Next are the Japanese Navy FGR.2 Phantoms Operating off the Carrier Akagi (ex-USS Midway)! Both the Akagi and Hampton Grey are operating in the Straits of Hormuz protecting the shipping lanes from Iranian and Iraqi air and sea threats. Cheers Richard.

I MUST do decals for these! But wait, first I must do the Japanese Navy Phantoms! I think they are going to look spectacular! Cheers Richard.

Gekko_1 Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 Had an accident last night......................................and this happened!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know about you guys, but I REALLY like this one! I've decided, in regards to the story, that four of VF871 Squadron's Phantoms wear this disruptive camouflage scheme and all have a girls name on the intake, both port and starboard sides. All four names start with the letter "C", hence "Candice". The other three are Cristina, Claire and Charlotte. Cheers Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keefr22 Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 (edited) Had an accident last night......................................and this happened!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yep, that's pretty cool - that was a happy accident!! How's the decal sheet going Richard....??!! I do wish you'd stop it with these distractions....!! (just kidding, I think they're absolutely tremendous!! ) Keef Edited May 24, 2010 by keefr22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard E Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I was thinking about possible warloads for some of these profiles this morning and came up with the seed if an idea: what would an FGR2 fitted with the camera nose from the RF4 look like in some of these schemes: certainly the carrier based operators would need an organic reconnaissance capability...

Gekko_1 Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 OK guys, here's the first of the Japanese Navy FGR.2 Phantoms. Eventually there will be a total of 24 of these Japanese Phantoms making up the Attack Wing on board the JNS Akagi (ex-USS Midway). Each will have 'nose art' on the intake area, where you see "Godzilla" on this example. The sister squadron will be camouflaged in the blue on blue scheme as seen on the Mitsubishi F.2. VF-721 Mizuchi is responsible for air to air coverage of the fleet and the sister squadron VF-??? is responsible for air to ground engagements, however as necessity requires both squadrons can intermix roles. Godzilla has shot down a combination of 2 F-14 Tomcats, 2 F-4E Phantoms and 2 UAV's. Cheers Richard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard E Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 (edited) I'm not sure? What's the significance/difference???Richard. The FG1 was developed for the Royal Navy so was fitted with underwing attachments for the a catapult strop, slotted tailplanes and an extendable nose gear leg whilst the FGR2 was developed as a land based aircraft for the Royal Air Force, although, with the exception of the slotted tailplane the two types are virtually identical.

Gekko_1 Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 Ah right, thanks for the info guys. Might have to make them FGR.3's though as they have also been updated with GPS, ECM upgrades, a CRT screen and other mods to be able to handle the various updated munitions that they will carry. Now I have to amend the profile with slotted tailplanes! Cheers Richard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
