VA1 Matador (Harrier AV8S)


Recommended Posts

Finish no10 for the year is also the third Harrier but a first gen rather than 2nd gen, I used the Airfix GR1 kit built OOB less the the spine antenna made from plastic card and the CTA decals for the Spanish variant but the kit stencils as they were sharper than the CTA stencils. Painted with Mr Colour acrylics but no weathering as most photos show the aircraft were keep in a clean condition. Just need the RAF GR1, Thai AV8S and Indian Navy FRS1 and that will be the Gen 1 harriers complete. As usual all comments welcome.

Very nice. Good to see one in Spanish colours and the decals look to have settled down well. I don't recognise CTA though. Where are they from?

CTA is based in Moscow but I got my set from Hannants
