    ..well said that man….in a perfect world there would be 10 vixens airworthy…along with a a few javelins,lightnings,victors,scimitars,swifts,CONCORDES….etc etc etc etc….
    its not though is it…..im just grateful to these people who are willing [or mad] enough to spend all there time and money on keeping these fantastic old aircraft in the air…we should be treating them like saints not devils….all i can say is….WHO GIVES A **** WHAT COLOUR IT IS, AT LEAST SHES FLYING….keep up the fantastic work…..

    oh yes seeing them fishbeds would have been awesome…. 😀

    the harrier in a hover is amazing it feels like your chest is about to explode, when you can smell the exhaust gases makes it even more impressive…when a nimrod does a high speed pass is amazing i think..you would swear blind a fighter is passing over…the vulcans [terrifying] roar and the hunters blue note always makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.
    i bet a tu-22 blinder lifting off on full burner was pretty loud…….what about helicopters..i always think a lynx is pretty loud for a small chopper….

    thanks more fantastic models….
    i did make some soviet aircaft models a few years back..i had a 1/72 blinder a foxbat,foxhound,il-28,su-17,mig-27 and a su-15…ive still have the model flagon though she looks a bit worse for wear now…the rest got wrecked…well i was young then..lol…i always wanted a firebar or a fiddler…i would have treasured them…

    heres one we havnt mentioned……

    im not suprised they thought the fiddler was a bomber..according to a source of mine, there was a bomber version called the tu-128B, i dont know if it even got off the drawing board though. as the su-24 fencer was given the go ahead.
    as for the yak-28-64 it was armed with 2 AA-2 atolls and 2 AA-3 anabs like its ancestor, but it also had provision for 2 drop tanks on fuselage pylons.
    still nothing on that interceptor blinder then?????…. 🙂

    most western camo schemes are now boring i agree…but i did like the USAF vietnam type colours..and the RAFs wrap around camo scheme..i think the mil-8s and mil-24s around the world have the best camo schemes.

    i belive the aircraft in the picture is a yak-28-64. it was a major redesign of the firebar, built to compete with the t-58 [su-15]. i think only one was built as obviosly the su-15 was chosen. does enyone have more info on the 28-64??.
    another question was the mig-9 fargo or the yak-17 feather ever used in anger. i think some fargos where deployed in korea. was eny exported.
