Mozzy19 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Wonder when the decals will be out? Soon if Xtradecal get their finger out, going by the way their decals for the green tailed Eurofighter were released not long after the thing was first shown!

Kevin Callahan Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Sounds like it would have been an excellent candidate for their "history of 617 squadron" sheet X72-093, though that went through 2008! Now it'll have to find a home on one of the RAF updates, perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirfixAndy Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Only thing that lets it down is the small squadron badge on the nose .......would of been nice to of been a bit bigger. The RAF could borrow a few ideas from the Luftwaffe Tonka special schemes painters.......now they would be interesting Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skull Leader Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I agree that the squadron roundel is quite small, but it's still an attractive jet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
