jonf45 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) HI, Finished this Draken a week or so ago, lovely kit, went together really nicely. Replaced the chunky pitot tube for a model master one, rest is pretty much oob, finished as 35604 of the Swedish Air Force. Such a shame theyre not the easiest of kits to get hold of!!

binbrook87 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Very nice indeed. Great work. One of my favourite aircraft. That kit is as rare as rocking horse poo! Must get hold of one at some point. 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Conceived in the early 1950s as a uniquely potent Mach 2 interceptor of Soviet nuclear bombers, should the Cold War turn into a shooting ditto, the J 35 Draken first flew in 1955. She still turns heads at air shows, since the Swedish Air Force Historic Flight operates a single seat J 35J and a twin seat SK 35C. Beautiful model of a 'Filip' from the F 10 Wing in Ängelholm! Kind regards, Joachim 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh G Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Well done; I love the Draken. Did any of them ever see any action? I know quite a few of them intercepted Russian Bears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Joyce Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Nice looking Draken, Jon, with an excellent job on painting it. Someday I need to get one of those kits, but as you mention they are somewhat rare nowadays. Cheers, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72modeler Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Very nice J35! One of the prettiest lawn darts ever built and you have done her justice! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djos Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Looks perfect. I like more those camouflaged J-35, It looks more aggressive in this high visibility appearance than overall grey ones, Regards Djordje . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
