An absolute blast! So clean and colorful. And in addition beautiful professional pictures. Since you can only pat on the back and say: well done you can be proud.

don't know how I missed this one, I can only echo and agree with what others have said, a brilliantly executed idea, build and paint

 

I would love to have seen it "for real"

Brilliant idea to do this and a beautiful job on it. I love the Phantom as well. One of these days I will build my Matchbox F-101B Voodoo in USAF Thunderbird markings.

Nice build farmerboy, but I'd like to offer an alternative for your next build. Instead of going forward in time with a Typhoon how about a Yellowjacks Javelin??

I'm not generally fan of 'what if's' but these are fantastic!

Well there’s an idea, not so confident that l could get a result using YELLOW on such a large aircraft, but then again………..!!

That would've been the most unexciting display ever, given the aero limitations placed on the type. I love Javelins, but they weren't the most successful flying machine ever committed to service.

....well l don't know about you lot but mine would be (front and back) if 9 of these had just taken off in a rolling formation, gone vertical,

on full afterburner to 20,000 feet at mach 1.2.

The noise and vibration would have felt like the end of the earth,

Birds would have fallen from the sky.

Women would have fainted in there thousands.

Hard men with daggers tattoed to there foreheads would have cowered on the floor crying for mummy.

It would have been FANTASTIC !!!

 

 

 

Big thanks to @Dr. Quack for sending me the RAF decals.

 

@Courageous @Wolfman @Terry1954 @Lightningboy2000 suggested l built this after l presented a Phantom Red Arrows in

RFI back in 2019, it's taken a while so l hope it does'nt dissapoint.

 

 

 

Suprised how big the Lightning is along side the Phantom.

and NO l am not going to build a Vulcan Whif next!!!!

One such a rolling formation and full afterburn vertical ascent over the kremlin would have a certain president start crying, put cotton buds in his ears and rethink his plans..

 

I love your build, looks great!
