That pic looks staged, as it’s no indication that the USN Skyhawk is doing any manouvers at all.

Hey, and thank you for the nice artwork! Are you planning to only paint US Navy planes, or will you eventually paint USAF planes, or even foreign planes?

What?
I’m sorry, but I havent read this newsflash before; Algeria is going to buy both MiG-29s and Dassault Rafaels?
Do they have the funding to support two new major frontline planes?

Oh, and is the MiG-35 the same as the MiG-29OVT demostrator?

i think only the US equip some of there helicopters with refeuling probes, its not a very common practise..how meny [chooper tanker] hercs have they got….

I belive they have something like this:

– MC-130P ‘Combat Shadow’: ~20
– MC-130E ‘Combat Talon I’: ~10
– MC-130H ‘Combat Talon II’: ~25
– KC-130F: ~35
– KC-130R: ~15

So they have quite alot of “chopper tankers”.
And many of their choppers can perform air-to-air refueling, altough most of them are only for spec-ops.

No problemo…..now you make me like I need glasses :p

Heh’. Case closed! 🙂

But you do make a good point.
Why does that MiG-29 have a US flag both on the fuselage/wings and on the “Fulcrum Farewell USA 2003” logo at the fin? Did the US take over some of the ex-German Fulcrums, and this is sorta like a symbolic gimic?

I also find the Ruski camo attractive. But has it gotten any real use?
I mean, why do most of the Western European Air Forces just paint every plane grey, while alot of Eastern European planes are camouflaged?
